gnutls: allow proper use without GTLS_SYSTEM_CA_FILE specified (1.52 KB, patch)

Description Dominique Leuenberger 2013-07-11 21:20:52 UTC 
If GTLS_SYSTEM_CA_FILE is not specified, glib-networking can not build
the GTlsDatabase and consequently gives weird errors.

Using gnutls, though, we want to be able to rely on gnutls entirely for
the verification, so we just do not build our own database without an
anchor defined.

There always needs to be a default GTlsDatabase. You presumably want an alternative subclass of GTlsDatabaseGnutls that just calls gnutls_certificate_set_x509_system_trust()?

Seems obsolete
