BUG: wget in os 6.2.3
After upgrading to os6.2.1 (on a pro 6, but I think this is not a hw issue), I've been getting wget errors like this:
GnuTLS: A TLS fatal alert has been received.
GnuTLS: received alert [40]: Handshake failed
wget can be built against openssl or gnutls. In 6.2.1 it is gnutls. Unfortunately the version of GNUtls used by netgear has this bug. See here for example showing this exact same version is buggy: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1066403#c5
Please either rebuild wget against openssl or update to a 3.x version of GNUtls which appears to fix the problem. Do I need to submit a ticket or is this enough?

- This should be enough.
- I just noticed that curl works for all cases that I can see are failing with wget even though I see curl is linked with the same gnutls. So maybe it's wget itself or how it uses gnutls, but googling I see 4 or 5 occurrences pointing to a bug in gnutls. The thing that is "failing" frequently for me and led me to this is Headphones. These are torrent search sites failing. Possibly they are using a particular cert vendor that triggers it. It doesn't look like headphones/python is linked to gnutls, but I'm hoping it's dynamically loaded or something since every one failing also fails in wget.
steve - FWIW this still happens on 6.2.3. I notice for example this happens with http://thepiratebay.se (gnutls error with wget, but it works with curl).
steve - Whatever python connection library sickbeard uses also gives this error. It says warning but it then skips using TPB so it's really an error.
