I do not have a Debian 12 machine around right now, but this error
messages...

... suggest that "the library" *or* "pkg-config" is missing.  So,
do you have pkg-config installed?

Spoke to the openvpn/debian package maintainer (Berni), and he pointed
me to the list of build deps here, which also has "pkg-config":

 https://sources.debian.org/src/openvpn/2.6.3-2/debian/control/


(Maybe someone could make the configure error message a bit more 
helpful... patches to configure.in welcome)
