New gnutls packages are available for Slackware 14.0, 14.1, and -current to
fix a security issue.
Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog:
patches/packages/gnutls-3.1.21-i486-1_slack14.1.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes a flaw where a version 1 intermediate certificate would be
considered as a CA certificate by GnuTLS by default.
For more information, see:

(* Security fix *)
