It is now called libgnutls28-dev; it used to be a transitional package on
xenial.

I disagree with Ubuntu's usual behavior to add a version in a package name, but
I could build a transitional empty package called "libgnutls-dev" depending on
libgnutls28-dev and distribute it on my public PPA
(https://gitlab.com/jean-christophe-manciot/ppa), if it's complex for you to
have a special case for Ubuntu dependencies.
