Release: Ubuntu Vivid Vervet (15.04)

When attempting to download any file with nzbget, even fetching nzbs themselves from a server, the following message is displayed:

TLS handshake failed: Error in the system's randomness device.

It seems to be an incompatibility between nzbget and the current gnutls that is shipped with Ubuntu 15.04 as this issue occurs even when compiling nzbget 13/14 from source. The issue can be avoided by configuring nzbget with:

--with-tlslib=OpenSSL

To force nzbget to use OpenSSL instead of GnuTLS.
