You can build with OpenSSL on Linux also. There's no technical reason
for preferring gnutls over OpenSSL.
Thanks very much for this information; I'll see if I can talk the boys
into trying that path first.
you can try - for Linux distributions, politics outweighs technical
considerations (OpenSSL's license is said to be incompatible with GPL'd
applications).
Of course it's possible that lynx isn't using gnutls properly - but the
last I checked, it has no documentation whatsoever, and reading the source
code is no better.
