Bug#579429: libsoup2.4-1: broken on TLS 1.0 sites

Package: libsoup2.4-1
Version: 2.30.1-1

uzbl cannot connect to sites that only support TLS 1.0.  I assume
it is because of this:

        * libsoup now always uses SSL 3.0 (not TLS 1.0 or 1.1) for
          https URIs, to work around problems with older servers that
          don't implement the (apparently quite confusing) TLS/SSL
          compatibility rules correctly. Makes a bunch of
          previously-inaccessible sites now accessible in WebKitGTK
          (notably PayPal) [#581342]. Will eventually be revisited, to
          first try TLS 1.1 and fall back if that fails.
