According to the NEWS file [1]:
| Dependencies: libu2f-host is no longer used for FIDO communication
| over USB, instead the python library fido2 is used.

There is currently no security/py-fido2 port, and some work is needed
for it to be functional on FreeBSD (only supports Linux though SYSFS,
Mac OS though IOKit and HIDManager and Windows).

Also, a dependency on security/py-openssl is missing.

Because of these two missing dependencies, ykman will not start :-(.

I started to fix this but discovered that quite some work was needed to
make security/py-fido2 usable on FreeBSD by dealing with FreeBSD's HID
interface.

When installing security/py-fido2 as it is currently (so a non-
functional py-fido2 port) some functionality will not work (e.g.
changing the mode from FIDO to some other mode), but ykman will start
and most feature will work. However AFAICR, the previous version was
also broken for changing the mode of a FIDO-only yubikey.  So it can be
a temporary solution while working on adding FreeBSD support to
py-fido2.

Are you aware of these problems?  If yes, are you working on this and is
there a way I can help?  If no, do you mind if I commit a
non-functional security/py-fido2 and the fix for
security/py-yubikey-manager to unbreak ykman?

Thanks!
Romain
