libgnutls-version’s value is 30605

➜  bin ldd emacs-26.2 | grep gnutls
libgnutls.so.30 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnutls.so.30
(0x00007f78d3a1e000)

I still suspect the issue may have been server rather than client. This
system with the same configuration has been connecting to elpa.gnu.org over
https since I first built it when 26.2 was released.  It is only today that
I found https connections to elpa.gnu.org failed.

Note also that to be sure, I did a rebuild and  reinstall of emacs just in
case it had been linked against an older library. This had no effect.

According the the gnutls NEWS file, this version does support 1.3
