Configure is distributed in tarballs, downloaded from
https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/cryptsetup/

For git branch you need to run ./autogen.sh to generate it.

You do not have all development packages installed.
(I guess pkgconfig or gcrypt devel here.)

I do not know your distro but better use tarball, run pregenerated
configure and it will probably print more info.
