The upstream fix for this has included moving on to depending strictly
on later versions of GnuTLS.

I just want to point out that this version of OpenConnect was
deliberately built against GnuTLS 2.12, even though GnuTLS 3.2.11 was
available in both the Debian and Ubuntu archives at the time. I believe
that should not be changed. If this can be fixed by patching
openconnect, but continuing to link with libgnutls26 2.12.23, then
great.

The reason for avoiding libgnutls28 in 14.04 is because libgmp10 5.1.3
was licensed under GPLv2 only. Only at version 6 was GMP dual licensed
under LGPL, which allows the combination of libopenconnect, libgnutls28,
and libgmp10 to be distributed wholly under LGPL. GMP 6 happened to come
out around spring 2014, too late to be included in Ubuntu 14.04.
