Bug#245053: gossip: cannot connect on SSL server

[Frédéric Gobry]

Package: gossip
Version: 0.7.4-1
Severity: normal

When connecting to a jabber server via SSL, I get the following error:


GNUTLS ERROR: ASN1 parser: Element was not found.
 
(gossip:30490): GLib-CRITICAL **: file gmain.c: line 1560
(g_source_remove): assertion `tag > 0' failed

(g_io_channel_unref): assertion `channel != NULL' failed


Non-SSL connections do work however. I've tested on two servers, a
private one and amessage.info, same behavior.

I remember a similar report a while ago, but have been unable to find
it on the BTS (even in the archive). I hope this is not a duplicate.
