1 Hello everybody,
2
3 since seems like the plans are to unmask GLIBC 2.16 soon, and I don't
4 really want to further patch GnuTLS 2, and this is already going to
5 involve quite a bit of work, it means that the moment GLIBC is unmasked,
6 GnuTLS 3.1 is unmasked as well.

8 The tracker for this is at

10 https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=gnutls-3
11
12 And as you can see most of the problems are with packages that have
13 optional support for GnuTLS, so I don't expect so many people screaming,
14 but please try to handle these bugs sooner, rather than later.

16 Thanks,
