Re: Undefined reference to gnutls_protocol_set_priority() when compiling latest wget version

[Stephen Kirby]

Hi Tim,

I'm using GnuTLS version 3.6.13.  I believe it is the latest.  If anyone
knows otherwise please let me know.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you Tim (was swamped this morning)
and thanks for your fast response!  I double-checked the versions of GnuTLS
and wget I am using.  Both are the absolute latest (gnutls-3.6.13 and
wget-1.20.3).  As such, I am not sure why the latest wget (in src/gnutls.c)
would employ a deprecated/removed function, specifically,
"gnutls_protocol_set_priority()?  Do you recommend stepping back to an
older version of GnuTLS to get around this and if so which one would work?
Otherwise, would anyone know of a patch for the wget source code,
specifically, for the file  /src/gnutls.c so I can use the latest versions
of GnuTLS and wget?  Thanks so much.

Best regards,
Steve
