Twitter stopped working on Jan 14, 2014 (presumably something SSL-related)

I'm using bitlbee version 3.2-1 (linux mint / ubuntu). It used to work just fine with twitter, but now I just get:

<root> twitter - Logging in: Getting contact list <root> twitter - Logging in: Error: Could not retrieve /1.1/friends/ids.json: 403 Forbidden <root> twitter - Logging in: Signing off..

• twitter_foo has quit (bitlbee.localhost twitter.localhost)

<root> twitter - Logging in: Reconnecting in 135 seconds..

I presume this is related to ​https://dev.twitter.com/discussions/24239 in some way.

Update to 3.2.1.

Thanks for the dev.twitter.com link BTW.

Ubuntu repo (raring) didn't have a 3.2.1 package available (the package version was deceptively close though "3.2-1"), but a bitlbee package from the nightly repo ​http://code.bitlbee.org/debian/ worked fine.

For anyone else having issues, I had to first pkill the running instance of bitlbee (a "service bitlbee restart" wasn't enough).

I can confirm that version 3.2.1 works fine, so feel free to close this issue.

Thanks for helping out.

For info, 3.2.1 as packaged in Debian unstable fixes this too (which saves having to use the nightly on that distro).
