Use `fink list gnutls` to find the actual name for the gnutls package. 
In this case, you want "gnutls30" for the headers and other development 
files, and "gnutls30-shlibs" for the actual library. Depending on how 
emacs28 searches for libraries, you might also need to set CPPFLAGS to 
"-I/opt/sw/include" and LDFLAGS to "-L/opt/sw/lib" so that ./configure 
works.

See 
<https://www.finkproject.org/faq/usage-general.php?phpLang=en#compile-myself> 
for some other things you might need to set if the above is not 
sufficient (replace /sw in the FAQ to /opt/sw for your install).

Our package gnutls30-shlibs is in a subdirectory to avoid file 
collisions, so you might need to set some extra bits for LDFLAGS (see 
the output from `pkg-config --libs gnutls`)
