Hello Atsuhito,

thanks for fixing the issue.

it is less a "necessary" than a "I think it is ugly". ;-) Afaict (but
please take this with a grain of salt) lynx is only using a single
gcrypt function, and gnutls would provide something equivalent. So by
using the gnutls function the external dependency could be avoided.
Imho this should be fixed upstream.

cu Andreas
