bug#23027: 25.1.50; Emacs refuses to talk to eternal-september because they now use an MD5 certificate, apparently |

*** Fatal error: The signature algorithm is not supported.

GnuTLS error: The signature algorithm is not supported.
That's not very helpful.
However, on a newer machine it says:
- Certificate[1] info:
- subject `O=Root CA,OU=http://www.cacert.org,CN=CA Cert Signing
Authority,EMAIL=support@cacert.org', issuer `O=Root
CA,OU=http://www.cacert.org,CN=CA Cert Signing
Authority,EMAIL=support@cacert.org', RSA key 4096 bits, signed using RSA-MD5
(broken!), activated `2003-03-30 12:29:49 UTC', expires `2033-03-29 12:29:49
UTC', SHA-1 fingerprint `135cec36f49cb8e93b1ab270cd80884676ce8f33'
So there's the MD5.
So it like fails on several levels: On older machines, the GnuTLS
library is too old, and on newer machines, it refuses the connection
because of the MD5...
