Source: libetpan Severity: important Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer,
Testing https://delta.chat/ on Debian Buster, I noticed IMAP connection failures. After some debugging, I have tracked it down to a problem in upstream libetpan when built against a new-enough GnuTLS. PR for that here: https://github.com/dinhviethoa/libetpan/pull/330 The outcome of this bug is that SSL negotiation timeouts are 1,000 times less than they should be - Delta's 10 second timeout becomes 10ms. The default 30 second timeout becomes 30ms, which might *just* be long enough in some cases, but certainly not all. I'm opening a Debian bug report as I'd like the fix to be included in Debian Buster. Otherwise, all software that uses libetpan (including Claws email, I believe) will fail to negotiate TLS in seemingly-random circumstances. It's a one-line fix, the consequences of which are very easy to understand. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: unable to detect
