Public bug reported:
After the upgrade to gnutls 3.6.4 which has just been added to cosmic,
lynx becomes unable to view many ssl enabled sites, for example trying
to go to https://cyberciti.biz fails with "Alert: unexpected network
read error, connection aborted". There is nothing special about this
particular site, its just one I happened to be trying to access at the
time I uncovered this issue, and for affected sites, its 100%
reproduceable. Downgrading back to gnutls 3.5.19 fixes the issue.
