Use pkg-config to locate libgcrypt
Debian ships an own patch here https://sources.debian.org/src/purple-lurch/0.7.0-2.1/debian/patches/libgcrypt-pkgconfig.diff/ to fix purple-lurch: FTBFS against libgcrypt 1.11.
This seems to be required because libgcrypt 1.11 does not ship libgcrypt-config anymore which is still used here:
https://github.com/gkdr/lurch/blob/v0.7.0/Makefile#L7
The patch is the following, maybe something for integrating into this project directly?

Hi @iasdeoupxe,
Thanks for telling me about it. Do you happen to know if that's a Debian specific change or if this can be generally applied?
Not really familiar but did some search and found this:
rsyslog/rsyslog#5405
which has:
Problem is
libgcrypt-configwas dropped bylibgcryptrecently. This appears to have been planned for at least a year.
The relevant bug report also has:
Please switch from using libgcrypt-config to pkg-config to locate libgcrypt. libgcrypt-config will be dropped in the next libgcrypt major release.
so it seems it is a libgcrypt change not specific to Debian IIUC.
