Package: libapache2-mod-gnutls
Version: 0.5.1-1
Severity: normal
File: mod_gnutls


mod_gnutls does not set the HTTPS server variable correctly for mod_rewrite. 
Note that this
appears to be a different variable than the HTTPS environment variable.

I have mod_gnutls loaded on my server and I have a simple rewrite rule to 
redirect HTTPS POST calls
on my non-SSL protected site to my SSL protected site, like so:

        RewriteEngine On
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^POST$
        RewriteCond %{HTTPS} ^off$
        RewriteRule ^xmlrpc(.*)$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L,QSA]

Here is the output of ModRewrite with RewriteLogLevel 5. Note that the contents 
of %{HTTPS}
is "off". Apparently mod_gnutls does not set this variable.

The contents of %{HTTPS} should have been set to "on" by mod_gnutls.
