I think it's safe to edit that file (this is probably a packaging
problem) as long as you make sure the description you make is OK. If I
compare to my local copy (which is version 0.0.25, the @MAJOR_VERSION@
is simply 1. In any case, make sure the directory mentionned in the
Cflags flag does contain the fam.h file (which is the one included in
libgda's sources).
