Hello,

transfig should not be necessary for a vanilla, unpatched build. Is
there something special with your setup? e.g. the Debian autobuilder had
no transfig installed and still succeeded. See
https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=libgcrypt20&suite=unstable
(That is 1.7.0, but there should not be a difference.)
