It's warning from linda that binary is linked against two version of
same library.

IMO no because of libgnutls.so symlink in libgnutls11-dev which points
to another version than libsoup is using. This will break static
linkage and results in strange results in dynamic linkage.

I know that it is real package, however nothing forces me to upgrade
and deps of libsoup2.2-dev are satisfied also with libgnutls11-dev what
can lead to problems (I expect this is temporary until libgnutls11
vanishes from archives).

So the dependency should be filled in on build time.
