The util/vircrypto.c file uses gnutls, so we must directly link libvirt_util.la with gnutls to avoid errors on OS which do not resolve symbols against indirectly linked libraries. This fixes a build failure on Ubuntu Trusty CCLD storagevolxml2argvtest /usr/bin/ld: ../src/.libs/libvirt_util.a(libvirt_util_la-vircrypto.o): undefined reference to symbol 'gnutls_strerror@@GNUTLS_1_4' //usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnutls.so.26: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
