Public bug reported: Since the development package in Debian is still called libgnutls28-dev (opposed to Ubuntu), there are several packages that build-depend on libgnutls28-dev instead of libgnutls-dev. Therefore, libgnutls28-dev cannot be removed from Ubuntu 15.04, 15.10 and upcoming 16.04 although it is a transitional package. This is due to the package libgnutls-dev missing libgnutls28-dev in the list for 'Provides:' in debian/control. Could you please append libgnutls28-dev to this list.
