Hi,

gnutls-3.8.5 has a regression which breaks e.g. Wireshark's testsuite [0] and also broke nullmailer [1].

The upstream bug is https://gitlab.com/gnutls/gnutls/-/issues/1540 and the fix is https://gitlab.com/gnutls/gnutls/-/merge_requests/1830.

As noted on one of the Gentoo bugs [2], a workaround appears to be creating an empty GnuTLS config file.

I suggest just applying the fix though [3].
