Description:

Hi Arch Team,

when trying to add a Google Calendar to Evolution I get a TLS Handshake error when using gnutls 3.0.1.
Downgrading to 3.0.0 solves the issue.
I tried bisecting but when building upstream gnutls it doesn't seem to get used by Evolution at least the version tagged 3.0.0

when simply compiled, build and installed without a PKGBUILD doesn't fix it like the Arch package of 3.0.0 does.

Greetings Nik

Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:

i have no idea how this works. evolution doesn't link to gnutls and doesn't use it at all.

is this google calendar support built in evolution or is a separate plugin?
Comment by Jan de Groot (JGC) - Wednesday, 24 August 2011, 08:19 GMT
AFAIK evolution has built-in support for this and it uses libsoup for HTTP communication. libsoup uses gnutls for SSL.

please try the new glib-networking from here: http://pkgbuild.com/~ioni/glib-networking/

Doesn't fix it here, though when adding the calendar newly the error message is gone it doesn't sync
Comment by Jakob Matthes (jakobm) - Thursday, 25 August 2011, 12:59 GMT
The new glib-networking is not fixing it here.
Error message on this machine reads: "The TLS connection was non-properly terminated."

new packages available, same pkgrel. be sure you delete the old package from cache (pacman -Scc)
Comment by Jakob Matthes (jakobm) - Saturday, 27 August 2011, 09:17 GMT
Just downloaded evolution and all dependencies (including the already installed) again from the server and reinstalled them.

I can refresh the list of available calendars from the server (i.e. some connection is made), but I get the same error as before, when trying to show/refresh the calendar itself. I'm not using evolution usually and don't know how to debug this.

have you tried the glib-networking package from http://pkgbuild.com/~ioni/glib-networking/ ?
Comment by Jakob Matthes (jakobm) - Saturday, 27 August 2011, 09:29 GMT
evolution 3.0.2-1
glib-networking 2.28.7-5
libsoup 2.34.3-1
libsoup-gnome 2.34.3-1

Yes, I got the glib-networking from your url.
I see some https/sslv3 traffic to 209.85.149.103.

I'm experiencing the same issue.

evolution 3.0.2-1
gnutls 3.0.1-1
glib-networking 2.28.7-5
libsoup 2.34.3-1
libsoup-gnome 2.34.3-1

With gnutls 3.0.1 the following message is reported after the password request:
"Impossibile aprire il calendario: Restituito codice di stato HTTP 6 inatteso (Errore nel leggere dati dal socket TLS: The TLS connection was non-properly terminated.)"

Using gnutls 3.0.0 the message won't show up but the calendar doesn't show/sync anything.

I get the same thing as Mulflone, with the same versions and all that.

I'm on x86_64, and deleting the old packages from cache and reinstalling gnutls has provided nothing it seems. I would assume this is just a regression of gnutls.

same problem here:

e-cal-backend-caldav-WARNING **: Server did not response with 207, but with code 6 (SSL handshake failed)


$ pacman -Q evolution evolution-data-server libsoup libsoup-gnome gnutls glib-networking
evolution 3.0.3-1
evolution-data-server 3.0.3-1
libsoup 2.34.3-1
libsoup-gnome 2.34.3-1
gnutls 3.0.1-1
glib-networking 2.28.7-5

As we don't know if is a gnutls or a evo/glib-networking problem, please only submit a comment only if you have a clue. I tried everything that i found related to gnutls and gnome, more expect only in gnome 3.2
Comment by Jeremy Newton (Mystro256) - Wednesday, 31 August 2011, 15:05 GMT
Well in my honest opinion, it seems like it's either a regression in gnutls or perhaps a change in gnutls that hasn't been adapted in libsoup or glib-networking (I would think the former but I can't say for sure). It doesn't seem like an evolution problem, more of the libraries surrounding it.
Comment by Yonathan Dossow (ydossow) - Wednesday, 31 August 2011, 17:20 GMT
I bisected gnutls, and the commit 16b552803790c0f1b393b6f143b166429c51e9f2 introduces the issue. Reverting it fixes the issue.

@Yonathan can you submit this patch upstream for review and paste the link here for the report?
Comment by Ionut Biru (wonder) - Friday, 02 September 2011, 08:38 GMT
ping?
Comment by Ionut Biru (wonder) - Thursday, 15 September 2011, 19:49 GMT
bug reported upstream for review:
https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?107802
Comment by Ionut Biru (wonder) - Friday, 16 September 2011, 18:24 GMT
thanks to fredbezies who reported upstream, we have now a fix in less than 24 hours. I hope this is a good lesson for everyone who didn't do a thing about this bug.

reporting upstream is the proper way to fix bugs in software.
