Hello Samuel, thanks for doing this investigation. This feels like a reasonable change to address through a Stable Release Update; the process is a bit involved, but largely so we're sure we don't break existing users in the process.
Are you in a position where you can prepare a debdiff? There's some guidelines on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/UpdatePreparation (it's not a perfect match since that page is for security updates, not SRUs, but it's hopefully helpful.) See also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates Thanks -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to gnutls26 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1444656 Title: GnuTLS TLS 1.2 handshake failure Status in gnutls26 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in gnutls26 source package in Trusty: Triaged Bug description: I'm experiencing the same issue as here: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/3713 I came across a SSL handshake problem with gnutls-cli when connecting to some websites, see below. It is somehow specific to gnutls as openssl/Chrome/Firefox can connect fine. Is this is a bug in gnutls or do you have any ideas how to troubleshoot it? $ gnutls-cli --version gnutls-cli (GnuTLS) 2.12.23 Packaged by Debian (2.12.23-12ubuntu2.1) $ gnutls-cli www.openlearning.com Resolving 'www.openlearning.com'... Connecting to '119.9.9.205:443'... *** Fatal error: A TLS fatal alert has been received. *** Received alert [40]: Handshake failed *** Handshake has failed GnuTLS error: A TLS fatal alert has been received. $ gnutls-cli sequencewiz.com Resolving 'sequencewiz.com'...

Thank you, Please back port the latest GnuTLS to Trusty as it is an LTS release and clearly GnuTLS 2.12 is an old branch. I've also attached packet captures of this.
