SSL handshake failed: SSL error: A TLS warning alert has been received.

[Gero]

Hi,

After moving to a new system (Kubuntu Hardy -> Lucid) I can no longer 
access an SVN repository:

$ svn update
svn: OPTIONS of 'https://example.com/path/to/svn/trunk': SSL handshake 
failed: SSL error: A TLS warning alert has been received. 
(https://example.com)

I assume the old svn client version was 1.4.6: 
http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/subversion The new version is 1.6.6.

The repository has other users for whom it continues to work.

Any ideas what is going on?

Thanks,
Gero.
