Bug#835342: curl or git clone commands throws "gnutls_handshake() failed" on https targets

[marcelomendes at gmail.com]

Ok, this is very odd!
Long time ago I did some testing with some deb-multimedia packages.
After the tests I made a clean up and removed all the packages, and
the repo from my source lists, until the libgnutls30 upgrade
everything was fine. Now when Mariusz pointed out his experience with
similar issue I went to check the package and:

As you can see, this package (librtmp1) remained of the deb-multimedia
packages and has a old libgnutls dependency, my clean up wasn't so
clean after all. :(

---------------------------------------------
Package: librtmp1
Version: 1:2.4+20130918.git79459a2-dmo6

Uncompressed Size: 160 k
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.14), libgmp10, libgnutls-deb0-28 (>= 3.2.10-0),
libhogweed2, libnettle4, zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.4)

Description: Toolkit for RTMP streams (shared library).
 A small dumper for media content streamed over the RTMP protocol
(like BBC's iPlayer high quality streams). Supplying an RTMP URL will
result in a dumped flv file, which can
 be played/transcoded with standard tools.

 This package contains the shared libraries, header files needed by
programs that want to use librtmp.

When I downgraded(!) to from multimedia package to debian package, as
suggested by Mariusz:

Unpacking librtmp1:amd64 (2.4+20151223.gitfa8646d.1-1) over
(1:2.4+20130918.git79459a2-dmo6) ...
Setting up librtmp1:amd64 (2.4+20151223.gitfa8646d.1-1) ...

Things are now working again.

I'm still curious to know why the package didn't upgrade since the
version of debian is from 20151223


That was a bit of a mess (my fault), but I'm glad things get to work again.

Thanks Mariusz for pointing out, and Thanks to Andreas and Nikos for
the pentience. :)
