Hi Wojciech,
I didn't see you had sent a v3 (going through my inbox from older to
newer :) ). Please ignore review on v2, i'll repeat it here.

This seems brittle, isn't there a better mechanism than this that can be
offered by distros? For openssl, installing libengine-pkcs11-openssl
(and setting the provider in the OPENSSL_CONF env variable) was enough.
Is there something similar to that for gnutls?
I don't think this will work on arm64 hosts, c.f.

Don't you want to validate it's properly signed?
