We can wait a few days to understand the references to NETTLE_INTERNAL. But if there's no other easy fix, I'll just bump the libnettle soname too, which should solve the immediate problem, right? Then we can still release this week.
MR against GnuTLS will be open in a few hours.
Excellent!
I'm not sure I understand the implications. Getting it in would let GnuTLS drop some of the references to HOGWEED_INTERNAL, is that what you mean with simplify, or something different? But all of them? And it doesn't look like it would affect references to NETTLE_INTERNAL.
This would allow dropping all HOGWEED_INTERNAL dependencies for GnuTLS compiled against new Nettle library.
Nice. My understanding was that GnuTLS also includes additional GOST curves, and depends in the internal struct ecc_curve layout. Is that wrong? I can have a renewed look at the patch, but my gut feeling is to not add new features at this point.
