ls -lF /usr/share/dns/root.key

Troubleshooting

cannot build the 14.2 SBo on -current

configure: error: Cannot build shared opendkim
                          against static openssl libraries.
                          Configure with --disable-shared
                          to get this working or obtain a
                          shared libssl library for
                          opendkim to use.

==> this is probably fixed till now, otherwise use source
