Bitlbee built against OpenSSL instead of GnuTLS
Alpine’s bitlbee packages are currently built against OpenSSL instead of
GnuTLS. This is an issue, bitlbee only has support for certificate
verification with GnuTLS:
https://bugs.bitlbee.org/ticket/886
In order to be able to verify certs for remote hosts, I had to rebuild it against GnuTLS and it worked just fine. Would like to see the packages adjusted as the change was pretty trivial to make.
