Anyone know why git is failing to clone with the HTTPS protocol (but
succeeds with the git protocol)?

Example:

$ git clone https://github.com/gnubee-git/GnuBee_Docs.git docs.gits
Cloning into 'docs.gits'...
fatal: unable to access
'https://github.com/gnubee-git/GnuBee_Docs.git/': gnutls_handshake()
failed: Public key signature verification has failed.


whereas:

$ git clone git://github.com/gnubee-git/GnuBee_Docs.git docs.gits
Cloning into 'docs.gits'...
remote: Counting objects: 1218, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (29/29), done.

It is working fine here:

OK so that page suggests reinstalling package libgnutls-deb0-28
BUT, that package is not in the archives for Debian stable:

https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=libgnutls-deb0-28

shows that it's only available in wheezy-backports, jessie
(oldstable) and sid (unstable) as a debports port for arm64.

So the file
pool/main/g/gnutls28/libgnutls-deb0-28_3.3.8-6+deb8u7_amd64.deb

is in the archives, but not listed as a stable/stretch package.

Interestin. Given it's apparently not in stretch, perhaps I should
simply uninstall it:

$ sudo apt remove libgnutls-deb0-28
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer
required:
  automoc cvsps emacs freepats git-doc gstreamer1.0-libav iceweasel
  ...
Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them.
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  curl easygit ffmpeg gir1.2-spice-client-glib-2.0
  ...
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 130 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
After this operation, 563 MB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] ^C


Looks like a Debian archives disconnect has happened somewhere ...
when removing a package that's "officially" not in the distribution,
removes 563 MB of installed software.

Bugs?

This:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=libgnutls-deb0-28
shows "No reports found!"

I also note that this package's "Provides" fields shows nothing, but
reverse depends:

  exim4-daemon-light
  libavformat56
libgnutls-deb0-28
  libhogweed2
  libimobiledevice4
  libmailutils4

  libvncserver0
  mutt-patched
  network-manager


This is a mystery that is beyond me. Any other ideas out there ???

I clone in 2 ways: --mirror for those repositories I am initially
keeping an archive for, and regular clone for those I want to
immediately look at.

In order to automate updates to these repos, I use this dir-name
convention to simply my scripts:

 - .gitm for --mirror (--bare) repos
 - .gits for regular "source checked out/ work dir" repos

Looks like something is broken on your end.

I would rework the script to handle something like:

docs-mirror.git
docs-bare.git
docs

Note that '--mirror' implies '--bare'; mirror and bare are two different 
things.:

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Why is this package missing from the repos, but installed in my
stretch install?

This also looks like a core security-type package, so, concerning!

Well that's the question - how do I figure out the problem?

Perhaps there's some dodgy Debian mirroring going on?

Again, when I look at that packages.debian.org link above, the
package no longer exists in stable, so how can it be that over 100
other packages recursively depend on this package, when it's missing?

Hopefully someone can steer me in the right debugging direction...

Thank you for the links.

For a given repo, I only have one primary clone or mirror. I have
various such local repos.

For GnuBee docs (or any other repo) I only clone it once, either with
plain clone, or with --mirror, never both - once I have a --mirror
repo locally available, I then either:

 - clone it to a "working dir", or

 - browse it insitu with git-ls

Hope that makes sense...

Because you upgraded from jessie.  This lets you keep older shared
libraries or other packages as long as they don't conflict with anything
in stretch.  And shared libs typically don't conflict with anything.

Very interesting, thank you.

How do I replace it with something stretch-supported, without having
130 paackages and 550MiB first removed?

(Which seems necessary because it's breaking git clone with https
URLs.)

You're talking about the package "libgnutls-deb0-28" which is listed
in the Subject: header?  I have no idea why that would be related to a
stretch version of git, or be causing any kind of problem.

wooledg:~$ dpkg -s git | grep ^Depends:
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.16), libcurl3-gnutls (>= 7.16.2), libexpat1 (>= 2.0.1), libpcre3, zlib1g (>= 1:1.2.0), perl, liberror-perl, git-man (>> 1:2.11.0), git-man (<< 1:2.11.0-.)

wooledg:~$ dpkg -s libcurl3-gnutls | grep ^Depends:
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.17), libcomerr2 (>= 1.01), libgnutls30 (>= 3.5.6), libgssapi-krb5-2 (>= 1.14+dfsg), libidn2-0 (>= 0.6), libk5crypto3 (>= 1.6.dfsg.2), libkrb5-3 (>= 1.6.dfsg.2), libldap-2.4-2 (>= 2.4.7), libnettle6, libnghttp2-14 (>= 1.12.0), libpsl5 (>= 0.13.0), librtmp1 (>= 2.4+20131018.git79459a2-3~), libssh2-1 (>= 1.7.0), zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.4)

The stretch version of git depends (indirectly) on libgnutls30 and
that's what should be relevant here.  Having libgnutls-deb0-28 installed

Yes. As per the link posted earlier in the thread to possibly help
solve this problem:

Well as I highlighted in another email above in this thread, when I
try to remove it, it wants to rip out over 100 packages and over 500
MiB's of Debian software.

I guess it's time to just re-install?

Been quite a few years since I've had to reinstall Debian…

Thanks for the ideas folks,

I don't understand why you have so many dependencies on
libgnutls-deb0-28 if you're running stretch. Doodling while I
downloaded the humongous video of today's Congress, I typed:

$ zgrep '\(libgnutls-deb0-28\)\|\(Package:\)' /home/debian/jessie/Packages.gz | \
 grep -B1 Depends | grep Package | sort > /tmp/oldpacks

which yielded 223 lines. I then edited oldpacks to build the single line:

$ grep '\(Package: abiword$\)\|\(Package: [ … ] Package: xombrero$\)' \
 /var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.us.debian.org_debian_dists_stretch_main_binary-amd64_Packages > \
 /tmp/keptpacks

and that yielded 198 lines, which suggests that stretch contains
up-to-date versions of most of the packages that apt wanted to remove.
(Obviously I'm not taking account of dependencies on dependencies…)
Here's the list of 25 jessie packages not in stretch:

$ lines-in-a-not-b.py /tmp/oldpacks /tmp/keptpacks
Package: dsyslog
Package: dwb
Package: guile-gnutls
Package: gurlchecker
Package: ircd-ratbox
Package: jd
Package: libaqbanking34-plugins
Package: libavformat56
Package: libaws3.2.0
Package: libccrtp2
Package: libepc-1.0-3
Package: libepc-ui-1.0-3
Package: libgloox12
Package: libgnutls28-dbg
Package: libimobiledevice4
Package: libmailutils4
Package: libmicrohttpd10
Package: libopenconnect3
Package: libucommon6
Package: libvncclient0
Package: libvncserver0
Package: libwireshark5
Package: licq-plugin-jabber
Package: mutt-patched
Package: sflphone-daemon
$ 

Many of those will probably have package names that include the
version number, like libwireshark5→libwireshark8.
(If you get different results, it could be because my jessie
installations/lists are all i386 whereas for stretch they're amd64.)

Cheers,
David.

(Such as...?)

It really sounds like you've got a half-jessie, half-stretch system
for some reason.  Maybe you never fully upgraded to stretch, or maybe
you've got a whole bunch of unusual packages that were installed during
your jessie days, that were removed from stretch, or came from third
party sources.

What happens if you do "apt-get install git" now?

Also, can you show us the output of:

apt-cache policy git libgnutls30 libgnutls-deb0-28

The first list is just old dependencies, that's ok.

There seems to be a fair bit of libreoffice stuff in the second list,
including libreoffice itself. Here's the versions available in my
setup:

Package: libreoffice

libreoffice:amd64/stretch 1:5.2.7-1+deb9u4 uptodate

libreoffice | 1:6.0.5-1~bpo9+1 | file:/public/debian/debian
stretch-backports/main amd64 Packages

libreoffice | 1:5.2.7-1+deb9u4 |
http://security.debian.org/debian-security stretch/updates/main amd64
Packages

libreoffice | 1:5.2.7-1+deb9u4 | file:/public/debian/debian
stretch-proposed-updates/main amd64 Packages

libreoffice | 1:5.2.7-1+deb9u3 | file:/public/debian/debian
stretch/main amd64 Packages



Little things like "reportbug" seem odd too... whilst I could live
with reinstalling virtualbox - but why is it and others getting
uninstalled in the first place, is the question I can't explain.

Wow, tla - that's from either old-old-stable or old-old-old-stable :)

To me, that second message (apparently from the superuser thread OP)
looks like it suggests

   1. uninstalling libgnutls-deb0-28,

   2. taking careful note of the explicitly desired applications that
      will be removed as a consequence of the removal of
      libgnutls-deb0-28,

   3. and then re-installing those desired applications.

That doesn't sound like the same thing as reinstalling
libgnutls-deb0-28. Not to me.

Curious.

Neato.

So I installed this system from a jessie dvd and immediately upgraded
to testing about a week before stretch became the new stable. So, like
you, my stretch system is an upgrade from jessie (though it only spent
a couple of hours as jessie).

I had no difficulty replicating john doe's success with

   $ git clone https://github.com/gnubee-git/GnuBee_Docs.git gnubee-git

(except for his enviable download rates).

Can confirm:

Whoa there.

I notice that nowhere in this thread have I been able to locate where
you indicate what *version* of libgnutls-deb0-28 you have installed.

It would be interesting to know.

Anyways, either way, nice to see you around again.

Good luck.

I should probably add that I'm not trying to suggest that steps 2 and
3 above sound like much fun, especially when it might involve so many
packages.

Why? libgnutls-deb0-28 is out of date. Why would one expect it in
stretch when:

$ grep -c libgnutls-deb0-28 /var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.us.debian.org_debian_dists_stretch_main_binary-amd64_Packages

0
$ 

so nothing there depends on, recommends, or even suggests, libgnutls-deb0-28.

Why in sid? It's a port. People running sid want to be able to run
their program foo that depends on it while they work on upgrading
foo. Otherwise you would be forcing them to get foo to run with
libgnutls30 *before* they could do any other work on it. They
could find themselves in the same situation with many other
libraries simultaneously.
