This question is a good candidate for a FAQ on Gdome2: such information
are provided by the shell script gdome-config that you can find in the
$prefix/bin directory (es: /usr/local/bin).

I try to make an example on what you have to write in your configure.in to
check for a specific version of Gdome2:
...
$PACKAGE=myapp
...
dnl
dnl find libgdome
dnl
GDOME_CONFIG="gdome-config"
GDOME_MIN_VERSION=0.6.8
AC_MSG_CHECKING(for Gdome2 library >= $GDOME_MIN_VERSION) 
if ! $GDOME_CONFIG --version > /dev/null 2>&1
then
	AC_MSG_ERROR(Could not find Gdome2 anywhere (see config.log for
details).)
fi

dnl
dnl test version and init our variables
dnl
vers=`$GDOME_CONFIG --version | awk -F. '{ printf "%d", ($1 * 1000 + $2) *
1000 + $3;}'`
minvers=`echo $GDOME_MIN_VERSION | awk -F. '{ printf "%d", ($1 * 1000 +
$2) * 1000 + $3;}'`
if test "$vers" -ge "$minvers"
then
        GDOME_LIBS="`$GDOME_CONFIG --libs`"
        GDOME_CFLAGS="`$GDOME_CONFIG --cflags`"
        AC_MSG_RESULT(found)
else
        AC_MSG_ERROR(You need at least Gdome2 $GDOME_MIN_VERSION for this
version of $PACKAGE)
fi
...

This should be enough... 

Does sombody have any suggestions?

The best example I can suggest is the GtkMathView package on the Gnome
CVS.

I hope I've answered to your question...
