Hello,

this looks to me like it could be a duplicate of #62936, but since this
bug is closed, I am simply opening a new one.

The libgcrypt version was updated from 1.8.8 to 1.10.1 from master to
core-updates.

This causes ./configure to fail like so:
...
checking for gcry_md_open in -lgcrypt... no
checking for gcrypt.h... yes
configure: error: GNU libgcrypt not found; please install it

I suppose that the same problem occurred in #62936, but did not manifest
itself as clearly since one usually does not rerun configure.

It looks as if the API changed incompatibly between the two versions.

Andreas
