[Pkg-gnutls-maint] Bug#389590: gnutls-bin: Illegal packet received

[Ivan Raikov]

Package: gnutls-bin
Version: 1.4.4-1
Severity: grave

I recently upgraded the gnutls-bin package, and I can no longer
use gnutls to connect over TLS to the SMTP server I use. starttls
works fine with the same server. Below is the output from gnutls-cli. 


gnutls-cli -d 2 smtp.mail.gatech.edu -p 25
