Package: mutt
Version: 1.5.16-3
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
After upgrading to the new version of libgnutls13 in unstable, mutt
fails to connect to my imaps server with "tls_socket_read ((unknown
error code))".
Downgrading to libgnutls13 1.6.3-1 fixes it.
Apparently mutt calls gnutls_error_is_fatal() even when
gnutls_record_recv() returns a positive value (success), but the default
return value of that function has changed from 0 to 1 in the new gnutls.
The comment on top of gnutls_error_is_fatal() in gnutls_errors.c says:
* @error: is an error returned by a gnutls function. Error should be a
* negative value.
The following (untested) patch should fix that particular problem.
