Bug Description
# Description
In /usr/lib/
Libs.private is used by pkg-config to give link flags when using the "--static" option.
So Libs.private should contains internal libs used by gnutls to allow user to link statically with
gnutls.
If there is a direct link to a .so file, it's break static compilation.
The direct path to libz.so should be replace by "-lz"
