Comment 5 for bug 678020

This hasn't been commented on in a while, but I believe this is affecting my ability to compile libfilezilla-0.19.3 properly. I receive the message:

checking for gnutls >= 3.5.7... no
configure: error: GnuTLS 3.5.7 or greater was not found. You can get it from https://gnutls.org/

More detailed logs say:

configure:18612: checking for gnutls >= 3.5.7
configure:18619: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "gnutls >= 3.5.7"
Package gnutls was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gnutls.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gnutls' found
configure:18622: $? = 1
configure:18636: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "gnutls >= 3.5.7"
Package gnutls was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gnutls.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gnutls' found
configure:18639: $? = 1
configure:18653: result: no
No package 'gnutls' found
configure:18670: error: GnuTLS 3.5.7 or greater was not found. You can get it from https://gnutls.org/
