[Bug 1766962] [NEW] git clone fails with "An unexpected TLS packet was received" error

[thomas duriez]

Public bug reported:

I just updated from 16.04 to 18.04 beta.

This is the error message I get when I try to clone a repo:

fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/xxxxxxx/yyyyyyyyy.git/':
gnutls_handshake() failed: An unexpected TLS packet was received.


I cannot clone repositories on internet (tried on github and overleaf) when I used to have no pb.
This applies to https repositories (Couldn't try over ssh, IT decision).
I built this version of git to use libcurl4-openssl instead of libcurl4-gnutls to no avail but with a different error message though:

fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/xxxxxxx/yyyyyyyyy.git/':
error:1408F10B:SSL routines:ssl3_get_record:wrong version number

I purged packages and deleted .gitconfig, without results.
