[Bug 1020591] Re: subversion and GnuTLS internal error

[topaz]

To circumvent the problem :
1) I recompiled libneon WITHOUT gnutls, but using openssl instead (you need to desactivate sslv1, as the openssl version does not compile if you don't). 
2) I used checkinstall to create a deb package for the recompiled lib
3) I changed the link of libneon27-gnutls to the version recompiled (still mentionning gnutls, but it's just to avoid breaking dependencies):
3.1) rm /usr/lib/libneon-gnutls.so.27
3.2) ln -s /usr/local/lib/libneon.so.27 /usr/lib/libneon-gnutls.so.27
4) I marked libneon27-gnutls "hold" to ensure not upgraded (using shell command #echo "libneon27-gnutls hold" | dpkg --set-selections)
5) restarted all kdesvn apps to ensure taking into account the new lib
6) I wrote the bug report.

I'm glad I'm not alone facing this damn annoying problem.

Topaz.

Title:
  subversion and GnuTLS internal error

Status in “gnutls26” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “subversion” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Dear all,
  I'm experiencing an interesting bug around gnutls.

  My setup:
  - svn server running apache2+mod_ssl under 12.04 precise (last upgrades done),
  - svn client running 12.04 precise and providing a client ssl certificate,

  The problem:
  upon any svn operation (e.g. svn update), subversion output is:
  svn: OPTIONS of 'https://server/svn/trunk': SSL handshake failed: SSL error: GnuTLS internal error. (https://server)

  however if I use eclipse as my svn client, it works fine (with the
  same client certificate)

  Workaround:
  - reinstall (and force all) the package libgnutls26 version 2.10.5-1ubuntu3.1 from 11.10 Oneiric solves the problem but causes other applications to errors due to the broken libgcrypt11 dependency.

  Has anyone experienced the same problem ?

  Thanks in advance,
  Cheers
  Topaz.
