Hi Robert,
Thank you. This worked, in the sense that Emacs compiles with GNUTLS
enabled and GMP disabled.
However, when I try to open servers in gnus, I get the following error
message for each server (whether pop, imap, or nntp):
,----
| Decrypting /home/ucecesf/s/dotfiles/authinfo.gpg...done
| Mail source (pop :server XXX :user YYY :port 995) error (Getting random data).
| Continue? (y or n)
`----
I have a feeling that this is gnutls related but I am not sure. Any
pointers would again be very welcome!
I may have to consider upgrading that computer to Debian stretch... but
that would be my last resort.
