 # feature specific requirements
 
  * For SSL/TLS client and server connections, one of:
 
-   * OpenSSL 1.1.0 or newer (`--enable-openssl`)
-   * LibreSSL (`--enable-openssl`)
-   * mbedTLS (`--enable-mbedtls`)
-   * GnuTLS (`--enable-gnutls`)
+   * OpenSSL 1.1.0 or newer (`-Dopenssl=enabled`)
+   * LibreSSL (`-Dopenssl=enabled`)
+   * mbedTLS (`-Dmbedtls=enabled`)
+   * GnuTLS (`-Dgnutls=enabled`)
+
+   If multiple TLS libraries are available, the build system will prefer mbedTLS > OpenSSL > GnuTLS.
+   Use `=enabled` instead of `=auto` to force a specific library.
 
  * For certificate-based oper CHALLENGE, OpenSSL 1.1.0 or newer.
    (Using CHALLENGE is not recommended for new deployments, so if you want to use a different TLS library,
