#1218 gnutls - GNU TLS encryption library
GnuTLS is a project that aims to develop a library which provides
a secure layer, over a reliable transport layer. Currently the GnuTLS
library implements the proposed standards by the IETF's TLS working group.
Quoting from RFC2246 - the TLS 1.0 protocol specification:
"The TLS protocol provides communications privacy over the Internet.
The protocol allows client/server applications to communicate in a way that
is designed to prevent eavesdropping, tampering, or message forgery."
NOTE: this package depends on libtasn1, which has tracker number 834667
NOTE: this package depends on libgcrypt, which has tracker number 834668
In addition, libtasn1 and libgcrypt both depend on libgpg-error, which has tracker number 834663

I would suggest that you patch src/retcodes.c at line 84
from
qsort(names_to_sort, j, sizeof(error_name), compar);
to
qsort(names_to_sort, j, sizeof(error_name), (const void *)compar);
this ensures proper handling for some of the Mac os X oddities.

I am following up here for all othe rpackages as well. I see that
none of your packages seem to have a "-dev" splittoff. I have not
installed teh software yet, because I wanted to talk to you firsdt.
Are you 100% sure that none of teh software installs header files ?
or a static library? Those header files or an .a would belong in a
-dev splitoff

I updated the package to use 0.99 to see if there will be future
requirements and indeed there are:
checking for libopencdk - version >= 0.5.2... no
you may want to supply a package for this now, so that you do
not have to do so later ;)

Alternatively,you could disable the opencdk check for now, and re-
enable it once an opencdk package is availeble (i.e. if there is a
"--disable-opencdk" switch, use it, else patch the configure script).
Having a gnutls package would be really nice, because then for
example, I could make gaim-ssl depend on gnutls instead of
mozilla... :-)

Update to latest upstream version.
Now depends on the opencdk package which has tracker
number 869692.
Add a -dev splitoff.

Please look into the pros/cons of this

There are various warnings about incompatible pointer types for
arguments. Since one has to sometimes do more careful casting
on Mac OS X than other OS's you should probably check back
with the gnutls folk.
