Hello guy,

I think i found something. If we look into the upstream source provided in the
GNUTLS SRPM, we have on the file lib/gnutls_priority.c: 

static const int protocol_priority[] = {
  /* GNUTLS_TLS1_2, -- not finalized yet! */
  GNUTLS_TLS1_1,
  GNUTLS_TLS1_0,
  GNUTLS_SSL3,
  0
};

So I guess that if even if TLS1.2 is implemented in the CentOS version, the
default priority doesn't allow to use TLS1.2. 

And I think that lftp doesn't allow to force this priority, that's why I can't
use TLS1.2 and only at least TLS1.1.

So the question is: Is that behaviour can be considered as an lftp bug or not ?

Regards,
Olivier
