Thanks for pointing this out.
These dependencies just seem to be out of date.
According to [1], msmtp hasn't required gnome-keyring since 1.6.0. It's
capable of using libsecret instead, but our package doesn't seem to be
built with support for that.
Additionally, 1.6.6-1 is built against libgnutls30, but libgnutls28 is
listed as dependency.
I adjusted these dependencies on sourceware.

Jari,
Please check your local copy and/or double-check these going forwards.
Also, msmtp 1.6.6-1 doesn't seem to have been built for x86, at all.
Thanks.
