Hi Sandro,

Only based on what I know and given the current state of gnutls I would just go with openssl for now. That matches how curl is currently compiled at least.

shell~# curl --version
curl 7.18.2 (i486-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.18.2 OpenSSL/0.9.8g zlib/1.2.3.3 libidn/1.8 libssh2/0.18
Protocols: tftp ftp telnet dict ldap ldaps http file https ftps scp sftp
Features: GSS-Negotiate IDN IPv6 Largefile NTLM SSL libz

I don't know of a way to do both, you could do what Dima proposes but I think you'd need to convince the curl maintainers to change curl-config in both libcurl4-gnutls-dev and libcurl4-openssl-dev as well. Example: so debian/rules can point to things like curl-config-openssl and curl-config-gnutls or something.

I agree about licensing being better on gnutls but I'd rather have functionality and reliability first, then licensing with multiple viable options present. Maybe when a few things like this are squashed in the libgnutls codebase then switch back over to it down the road.

Best Regards,

-Mike
