Bug#855888: gnutls.pc requires libidn2.pc which does not exist

[Michael Biebl]

Package: libgnutls28-dev
Version: 3.5.9-1
Severity: serious

gnutls.pc from experimental contains
Requires.private: nettle, hogweed, libtasn1, libidn2, p11-kit-1, zlib

The package depends on libidn11-dev which ships libidn.pc though.

libidn2.pc is not available in the archive afaics.
I suppose you want libidn2-0-dev, but that package doesn't ship a libidn2.pc
(maybe a bug in that package).

As a result, building against libgnutls28-dev results in a FTBFS, like e.g. in
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=rsyslog&arch=ppc64&ver=8.25.0-1&stamp=1487703642&raw=0

Regards,
Michael
