I've been trying to compile the FileZilla versions 3.11 and 3.24 on Mac for a research project but when I run ../configure I get the following error:
configure: error: libgnutls 3.1.12 greater was not found. You can get it from http://gnutls.org/
However, I've installed gnutls using homebrew; when I run
brew list gnutls
I can see the library installed at /usr/local/Cellar/gnutls/3.5.8/
Any ideas to resolve the problem are appreciated. Thanks

It seems that GNUtls, as installed by homebrew ships with a pkgconfig file. So, you need to install pkgconfig if you don't have it already using:
brew install pkgconfig
Then, once you have that, you can find the compiler include file settings with:
pkg-config --cflags gnutls
Sample Output
-I/usr/local/Cellar/gnutls/3.5.8/include -I/usr/local/Cellar/nettle/3.3/include -I/usr/local/Cellar/libtasn1/4.10/include -I/usr/local/Cellar/p11-kit/0.23.3/include/p11-kit-1
And the linker library settings with:
pkg-config --libs gnutls
Sample Output
-L/usr/local/Cellar/gnutls/3.5.8/lib -lgnutls
So, we (just) need to convey that information to FileZilla. So, first we run:
./configure --help | grep -i utls
Sample Output
--enable-gnutlssystemciphers
Enables the use of gnutls system ciphers.
LIBGNUTLS_CFLAGS
C compiler flags for LIBGNUTLS, overriding pkg-config
LIBGNUTLS_LIBS
linker flags for LIBGNUTLS, overriding pkg-config
So it looks like we need to do something like:
export LIBGNUTLS_CFLAGS=$(pkg-config --cflags gnutls)
export LIBGNUTLS_LIBS=$(pkg-config --libs gnutls)
./configure

I haven't tried this with FileZilla, but I use it with other packages, and there is nothing to lose...
If homebrew has installed your GNUtls in /usr/local/Cellar/gnutls/3.5.8/, you could try telling FileZilla that location in your configure like this:
./configure CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/Cellar/gnutls/3.5.8/include" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/Cellar/gnutls/3.5.8/lib" ... other flags
