Bug#631823: libmei: FTBFS: configure: error: SWIG version >= 1.3.30 is required. You have 2.0.4.

[David Monfort]

Thanks for finding the bug and for the fix too.
It will be fixed in the next release of libmei.

Just for the record, the suggested fix is (a bit) buggy due to a missing
"test" at the beginning of the third test (but correct overall !).

Regards,
David
