Summary: libetpan uses obsolete gnutls interfaces

Initial Comment:
Hi

I've got following bug report for libetpan debian package:

----------

This package is using some functions which are marked deprecated in
newer versions of GnuTLS (>=2.12.x). (They are not yet removed, though.)
These functions will be removed in future releases. GnuTLS 2.12.x is
already available in experimental.

Excerpt from buildlog:
====================================================
mailstream_ssl.c:459:3: warning: 'gnutls_protocol_set_priority' is deprecated (declared at /usr/include/gnutls/compat.h:344)
mailstream_ssl.c:460:3: warning: 'gnutls_cipher_set_priority' is deprecated (declared at /usr/include/gnutls/compat.h:335)
mailstream_ssl.c:461:3: warning: 'gnutls_kx_set_priority' is deprecated (declared at /usr/include/gnutls/compat.h:342)
mailstream_ssl.c:462:3: warning: 'gnutls_mac_set_priority' is deprecated (declared at /usr/include/gnutls/compat.h:337)
====================================================

The gnutls_*_set_priority family of functions has been marked deprecated
in 2.12.x. These functions have been superceded by 
gnutls_priority_set_direct(). The replacement function was added in gnutls
stable release 2.2.0 (released 2007-12-14).

Bug report is at http://bugs.debian.org/624071

Could you please fix the library to avoid using obsolete interfaces?
