[Python-modules-team] Bug#705329: python-gnutls: Does not use gcry_check_version()

[Andreas Metzler]

Package: python-gnutls
Version: 1.2.4-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

Afaict python-gnutls does not initialize libgcrypt correctly, it does
not use gcry_check_version(). Ubuntu has a patch for this, see
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/python-gnutls_1.2.4-1_1.2.4-1ubuntu1.diff.gz

I am not sure it is 100% correct, it seems to be a strange coincidence
that python-gnutls 1.2.4 would require libgcrypt >= 1.2.4.

cu Andreas
