do we really need have_libcapng? it seems it is not used further in configure.ac

I have little to no experience with autotools, and I think this is straight up copied from the openvpn3 setup.

That's probably right.

Can I just leave the line empty? Or put empty [] there?

Yes, [] should suffice. That said, it makes no big difference if it is there or not. If needed to check ("test") if libcap-ng is available or not, this checks needs to be added again though.

That said, we do not have a consistent way of using PKG_CHECK_MODULES() in general. We have at least 4 different ways in use today.

Probably something to clean-up some day later.
