[gnutls-devel] GnuTLS 3.3.15 + nettle 3.1 - bug

[Andreas Metzler]

Hello,

Debian unstable currently has GnuTLS 3.3.15 +
https://gitlab.com/gnutls/gnutls/commit/546782633df475d9071115b5fc13b387539f0ca5
and builds against nettle 3.1.1. However this combination fails to
connect to 195.135.220.8:imaps with 'Received alert [20]: Bad record
MAC'.

* 3.4.1 with nettle 3.1.1 works
* 3.3.15 + 546782633df475d9071115b5fc13b387539f0ca5 built againsts
  nettle 2.7. works

Using
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/compat-gnutls28.git/log/gnutls-3.3.15-nettle3.patch
instead of 546782633df475d9071115b5fc13b387539f0ca5 also works.

I have searched in vain for the tiny difference between these two
patches that actually breaks.

cu Andreas
