Hello,

GnuTLS 2.4.0 has been released today and I would like to have a 2.4.x
release in lenny. The soname is unchanged to the version currently
in sid and lenny.[1] Shlibs have been bumped, though.

Transition to testing should be painless.

Developmemt versions and release candidates have been available in
experimental, proving that the package builds and correctly runs the
testsuite on archs with experimental autobuilders. Rebuilding
libgnutls-dev's reverse Build-Deps against the new version did not
show any new or different build-errors.

The timimg seems to be tight, since iirc freeze of all libraries was
intended for end of June but I think it is doable.

Thoughts?
thanks, cu andreas
[1] Some symbols were moved from gnutls-extra to gnutls, but since
usage of gnutls-extra also requires direct linking to gnutls a soname
bump could be averted.
