Describe the bug

In my Flutter project I'm trying to add notifications with APNS. When I do this I get the following error message after giving the path to the .p12 certificate and writing the non-existent password (just pressing enter):

Hey @kayzkenny, thank you for reaching out. The issue appears to be similar to #12969.
Noticed your comment on the issue, did you try switching to LibreSSL in your terminal as suggested in the comment #12969 (comment)

[kayzkenny]

@ykethan i saw the comment, but can't find instructions on how to switch the LibreSSL. Can you point me in the find directions?

[kayzkenny]

@ykethan i was able to enable APNs.

I had to first install libressl using brew install libressl and add it to my path using export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/libressl/bin:$PATH"

This should be in the docs as most flutter devs might not figure this out on their own.

As @ykethan mentioned you have to

1. brew install libressl
2. export PATH="/usr/local/opt/libressl/bin:$PATH" (you have to know where is your liberssl was downloaded and use that in your export)

The command to know where is your liberssl was is brew --prefix libressl
