I just upgraded to f17 with preupgrade and can confirm the exact same problem: remmina: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/remmina/plugins/remmina-plugin-vnc.so: undefined symbol: gnutls_global_init remmina.x86_64 1.0.0-1.fc17 @anaconda-0 remmina-plugins-common.x86_64 1.0.0-1.fc17 @anaconda-0 remmina-plugins-vnc.x86_64 1.0.0-1.fc17 @fedora gnutls.x86_64 2.12.17-1.fc17 @anaconda-0
Same problem here with Fedora 17: remmina: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/remmina/plugins/remmina-plugin-vnc.so: undefined symbol: gnutls_global_init remmina-plugins-vnc-1.0.0-1.fc17.x86_64 remmina-1.0.0-1.fc17.x86_64 remmina-plugins-common-1.0.0-1.fc17.x86_64
Can you please try 1.0.0-3 from updates-testing?

Created attachment 589271 [details] linker patch
The error stems from not explicitly stating the linker requirements. This is because of this[1] change. I've also checked that it properly makes remmina-plugins-vnc require gnutls without having to modify your spec file at all. Should be safe to apply and build.

Thanks, I rebuilt remmina rpms with your patch Nathanael and can confirm that it fixes the problem for me.
Thanks for the patch. I wonder why it built without it, but that is probably just some cmake foo I'm not going to understand. Update is coming your way, stay tuned.
