Description Itay Perl 2012-03-03 12:24:19 UTC
rtmpdump assumes that gnutls is using libgcrypt as a backend. This causes rtmpdump to crash:

(gdb) bt
#0  0xb7c8466f in __gmpz_sizeinbase (x=0x805ab30, base=2) at sizeinbase.c:30
#1  0xb7e25dd5 in wrap_nettle_mpi_get_nbits (a=0x805ab30) at mpi.c:205

#7  0x0804b4bb in main (argc=5, argv=0xbfffee24) at rtmpdump.c:1245

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
I don't know if every URL would crash it, but this certainly does:

rtmpdump -r rtmpe://video.infoq.com/cfx/st/presentations/09-sep-clojure-keynote.flv



There's a patch here:
http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/rtmpdump/2011-August/001543.html

I haven't tested it. It might be better to just compile with OpenSSL instead.
Comment 1 Itay Perl 2012-03-09 16:29:50 UTC
Looks like libnettle support has just been merged upstream:

Comment 2 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-03-22 20:42:50 UTC
Well, I'd rather wait for the next release as this patch does not seem trivial to apply
Comment 3 Alon Bar-Lev (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-11-23 23:32:10 UTC
any news? apply patch? I like to stabilize gnutls-3.3
Comment 4 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2014-11-30 13:00:01 UTC
Also, please test if this is still valid with 2.4_p20131018 :/ (the example streaming is no longer available)
