Ah, I see now - the file in question is src/libvirt.c - the typo of
libirt.c threw me off.

Other than the broken #include, it looks like the rest of the file
protects all use of *gcr* and *GCR* under the WITH_GNUTLS conditional;
and no other file seemed to be impacted.

I think we are guaranteed that gcrypt.h exists if gnutls is properly
installed, even if it is a transitive dependency. Does this patch fix
it for you?
We used to be, but as of gnutls-3.0 they switched to use libnettle
instead of libgcrypt. This will affect libvirt in Fedora rawhide,
so we need to do some work either split the checks, or if we want
to only keep a gnutls check, we need to conditionally use nettle
instead of gcrypt. I'm tending towards the latter, since it is nice
not to link to multiple crypto libraries which do the same thing.
