Summary: check for libetpan in configure b0rked

Initial Comment:
Hi!

 configure.in shouldn't just check for the
"libetpan/libetpan.h" file but rather for the output of
"libetpan-config --version" and compare it to the
minimum version it needs. Otherwise you will get
strange build failures when you have older library
versions installed but am not aware of it and wonder
why the build fails later on...

 So, I suggest to replace the following line in
configure.in with something that checks for the
libetpan version (sorry, I don't know too much about
autoconf yet so I can't suggest a replacement macro
right now):
AC_CHECK_HEADER(libetpan/libetpan.h, [libetpan=yes])

 Thanks,
Alfie
