This has no effect on parcellfun/pararrayfun.

If you should use the functions for cluster computation, you should
install the gnutls development package (on my Debian it is named
'libgnutls28-dev') and then uninstall and re-install
'parallel'. Otherwise you can do cluster computation only without
authentication and encryption, which might be dangerous -- if you want
to do it, read the docs first ('parallel_doc' from Octave
commandline).

This is a known issue not specific to 'parallel' and harmless.
