[...] Recent versions of gnutls indeed are not using Debian libtool anymore. When using Debian's patched libtool some unnecessary linkage is removed, but libgpg-error stays. However afaict the problem used to be masked by a libtool problem, but currently is not a libtool problem anymore. The culprit seems to be that this test --------------------------- AC_LIB_HAVE_LINKFLAGS(gcrypt,, [#include <gcrypt.h>], [enum gcry_cipher_algos i = GCRY_CIPHER_CAMELLIA128]) if test "$ac_cv_libgcrypt" != yes; then AC_MSG_ERROR([[ *** *** libgcrypt was not found. You may want to get it from *** ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libgcrypt/ *** ]]) fi --------------------------- gives us "checking how to link with libgcrypt... /usr/lib/libgcrypt.so /usr/lib/libgpg-error.so", since AC_LIB_HAVE_LINKFLAGS recursively expands la files. We therefore end up with /bin/bash ./libtool --tag=CC --mode=link cc [...] gnutls_psk_netconf.lo gl/liblgnu.la x509/libgnutls_x509.la -L/usr/lib -lz -L/usr/lib -lgcrypt -L/usr/lib -lgpg-error openpgp/libgnutls_openpgp.la opencdk/libminiopencdk.la So libtool is not *adding* something.
