======================================
Building TLS Support
======================================

TLS requires GnuTLS, which is supplied with most Linux distributions and
with MinGW for Windows and can be built from source on OS X and other
Unix variants. However, GnuTLS versions > 2.12.x && < 3.3.x should be
avoided because of potential incompatibilities during initial handshaking.

You can override the GNUTLS_LIBRARY and GNUTLS_INCLUDE_DIR CMake variables
to specify the locations of libgnutls and any dependencies. For instance,
adding

-DGNUTLS_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/local/include \
-DGNUTLS_LIBRARY="/usr/local/lib/libgnutls.a; \
/usr/local/lib/libgcrypt.a; \
/usr/local/lib/libgpg-error.a"

to the CMake command line would link TigerVNC against a static version of
libgnutls located under /usr/local.
