Hi Didier,

after upgrading to CUPS version 2 from testing if found that it gave the same
errors when accessing SSL functions. So I concluded that this might be a problem
in the package libgnutls-deb0-28. After a little searching I found this recent
(14 June 2015) bug report:

https://bugs.debian.org/788704

It turns out that the bug in GnuTLS is platform-specific

processor       : 0
vendor_id       : CentaurHauls
cpu family      : 6
model           : 13
model name      : VIA Eden Processor 1500MHz

The bug is fixed in newer upstream versions of GnuTLS but the one included in
Debian Jessie still has the bug. After installing patched versions of the
package, the segfault vanished. For me this is fine now but I hope that the
patch finds its way into the stable release so other users don't run into this
problem. Therefore, its good to have this documented here.

Gruß Johannes
