I am not sure what you are referring to but I will guess ...

A little apt-cache searching shows a gnutls-bin in the repos, it seems
to be version 2.12.14, it is not installed by default or with the
installation of claws-mail.  The claws-mail release notes say GnuTLS
2.2 is required.  The GnuTLS website lists the most recent GnuTLS as
3.0.19 as a tarball, would it help to install that?
