But libgnutls28-dev is in buster https://packages.debian.org/buster/amd64/libgnutls28-dev/download perhaps you need to setup the sources properly and apt-get update/upgrade and try again same for libtiff-dev https://packages.debian.org/buster/amd64/libtiff-dev/download and libmagick++-6.q16-dev https://packages.debian.org/buster/amd64/libmagick++-6.q16-dev/download regards
