Package: gnutls-bin
Severity: normal
Tags: patch upstream
Some servers (e.g. IIS) don't send a reply to gnutls_bye's close request. This
causes socket_bye to sit waiting for input from peer that never comes.
Since socket_bye is going to close the connection, we don't need to wait for
it anyway. My attached patch replaces GNUTLS_SHUT_RDWR with GNUTLS_SHUT_WR,
which seems to archieve that.
Note: this patch has already been sent to upstream ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
