Bug#663127: gnutls26: Regression between 2.11.6 and 2.12.0

[Timo Aaltonen]

Package: gnutls26
Version: 2.12.0 and newer
Severity: important

Hi!

I'm packaging FreeIPA for Debian, and noticed that the client install fails if the libgnutls26 version is newer than 2.11.6. The error message is:

--
root        : DEBUG    Init ldap with: ldap://f16.test:389
root        : ERROR    LDAP Error: Connect error: A TLS packet with unexpected length was received.
--

which doesn't say much. I couldn't test 2.11.7 since snapshot.d.o doesn't have packages for amd64 (FTBFS?), and bisecting without packages is rather hard I guess... Can't test 3.0.x either, since openldap doesn't build against libgnutls28.

I hope you have ideas what broke it..
