Thanks!

It just means that I haven't used eww in a long time (at least since
April 2021) 😁

I tried updating gnutls locally on my machine (where I don't have root
privileges)
- Tried to update gnutls, but it failed because I don't have libnettle.
- Tried to install libnettle, but if failed because
"downloads/nettle-3.7.3/examples/nettle-openssl.c:408: undefined
reference to `EVP_MD_CTX_new'"

I guess I will have to ask the sysadmin to update the gnutls lib.

Thanks for your help! This explains why eww works for me the last time
it worked (> 2 years back) and why it doesn't work now.
