curlpp.pc: doesn't contain version number

The resulting curlpp.pc file doesn't contain a version number after using cmake prior to build curlpp. I suspect that this explains why my package cannot require curlpp for version >= 0.8.1 appropriately. I am using autotools for building. See the following:
configure: error: Package requirements (curlpp >= 0.8.1) were not met:
Requested 'curlpp >= 0.8.1' but version of curlpp is
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables CURLPP_CFLAGS
and CURLPP_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
Even though you seem to have dropped autotools as build system, I think that other packages using other build system should still be able to require curlpp for a specific subset of versions. This means, you should fix the curlpp.pc file if I'm not mistaken.
