[gnutls-help] Cannot build gnutls from source: picks the wrong libnettle

[Sebastien Decugis]

Hello again,

For what it's worth, I could finally complete the build after making the following change:

index 790cdb1..c1b9867 100644
--- a/lib/Makefile.am
+++ b/lib/Makefile.am
@@ -141,6 +141,7 @@ endif
 
 if ENABLE_NETTLE
 libgnutls_la_LIBADD += nettle/libcrypto.la
+thirdparty_libadd += $(NETTLE_LIBS) $(HOGWEED_LIBS) $(GMP_LIBS)
 endif
 
 if HAVE_LD_OUTPUT_DEF


Best regards,
Sébastien.
