Hi, Ansgar, thanks for the response.

For most sites, the aforementioned code works. But it seems that there are some that gnutls cannot decrypt, only libssl.

I know nothing about Certificates and HTTPS encryption, but I find it might be very dependent of the site in question. The site is a corporate intranet site, so you wouldn't be able to test it anyway, but I though that, if you know something about certificates and encryption, the information of the verbose mode of libcurl can tell you something about the encryption type and certificate needed for this to work. I do not know any public sites which use this same type of certificate and encryption, and in fact I don't even know how to look for it.

I do not have the libwww-curl-perl/4.09-1, I'll try to download and test it, but I strongly suspect this is indeed caused by the lack of libssl in libwww-curl-perl. If it's absent as it was in 4.07, it won't work.
