moin moin,

What exactly is gnutls used for?
Web servers, or do general users actually use this for TLS connections?
Or something else?

I don't know, but I believe it's in the same category as OpenSSL, so could
be anything that wants to use TLS.

debian reverse depends shows 354 packages.

$ apt-cache rdepends libgnutls30 | grep -vc ^lib
354
$

$ apt-cache rdepends libgnutls30 | grep -Evc '^  lib'
258
$

$ apt-cache rdepends libgnutls30 | grep -Ev '^  lib' | awk -F- '{print $1 }' | 
sort -u | wc
    141     142    1337
$

Here are some from that list:

telepathy, weechat, vlc, wget, rsyslog, abiword, cups, emacs

ciao,
