As there is currently an issue open for the libkis versioning,
the patch cannot be merged yet as it break compatibility with the
current release library.

This commit fixes a number of issues that cropped up from these changes:
23c5b3e replace deprecated GnuTLS functions with newer ones if available
88f0651 bugfix: ommysql did not work when gnutls was enabled
ce560b6 build system: Failure action in AC_CHECK_LIB check for
The solution is based on the assumption that the call to AC_CHECK_LIB()
was added purely to satisfy the subsequent calls to AC_CHECK_FUNCS().
23c5b3e had the unintentional result of libgnutls being added to LIBS
and linked to undesired components.
The next commit removed libgnutls from LIBS which made the following
calls to AC_CHECK_FUNCS() nonfunctional.
Another commit made the processing not stop upon detecting a missing
component which, again, makes the calls to AC_CHECK_FUNCS() malfunction.
The solution is to get rid of AC_CHECK_LIB() and temporarily override
LIBS for use by AC_CHECK_FUNCS().
In commit 3b13693 commiter uses variable before executing another block of code which sets this variable and any changes in that block won't apply.
This bug appears when user runs "make dist" in the git repo and the generated tarball doesn't contain rscryutil.1.
This is possible due to a new API in liblognorm 1.1.2;
Note that the amount of error messages depends on the version of
liblognorm used. Consequently, liblognorm 1.1.2 is now required
to run mmnormalize.
Instead of an failure, only a warning message is generated now.
On Freebsd the function check does not detect the gnutls_global_init
proberly. This caused configure to fail even if gnutls was installed.
as it turned out, this was due to a check for GnuTLS functions
with the side-effect that
AC_CHECK_LIB, by default, adds the lib to LIBS, if there is no
explicit action, what was the case here. So everything was now
linked against GnuTLS, which in turn made ommysql fail.
Thanks to Thomas D. (whissi) for the analysis of the ommysql/gnutls
problem and Thomas Heinrich for pointing out that AC_CHECK_LIB might
be the culprit.
Man pages are not generated anymore when "--disable-generate-man-pages" is
configured. Also changed man-page rulepatterns makefile. The method
using $< refering to the prerequisite did not work proberly on FreeBSD.

The gnutls_certificate_type_set_priority function is deprecated
and not available in recent GnuTLS versions. However, there is no
doc how to properly replace it with gnutls_priority_set_direct.
A lot of folks have simply removed it, when they also called
gnutls_set_default_priority. This is what we now also do. If
this causes problems or someone has an idea of how to replace
the deprecated function in a better way, please let us know!
In any case, we use it as long as it is available and let
not insult us by the deprecation warnings.
Not every user is interested in building software with debug symbols.
If the user has set the new "--disable-debug-symbols" option, we won't
set the appropriate compiler flag to generate debug symbols anymore.
When you build from git source you always needed rst2man, flex and yacc (or a
replacement like bison). We only added checks to configure.
Due to this clarification configure option "--enable-generate-man-pages" is now
disabled per default but enforced when building from git source.
