When running 'portsclean', this message is displayed:

** /usr/local/lib/libcrypto.so.3 is shadowed by /lib/libcrypto.so.3
          /lib/libcrypto.so.3     <- ?
          /usr/local/lib/libcrypto.so.3   <- openssl-0.9.8
   --> This may be an undesirable situation
Leave /lib/libcrypto.so.3 (specify -i to ask on this)

** /usr/local/lib/libssl.so.3 is shadowed by /usr/lib/libssl.so.3
          /usr/lib/libssl.so.3    <- ?
          /usr/local/lib/libssl.so.3      <- openssl-0.9.8
   --> This may be an undesirable situation
Leave /usr/lib/libssl.so.3 (specify -i to ask on this)

Would it be safe to delete the redundant library? I assume that I should 
remove the /usr/lib/ version and not the /usr/local/lib version.
