Bug ID: 42752 Summary: Provide more specifc version in output of --version Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: Other OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: krichter@posteo.de Distribution: ---
At least development versions (e.g. from Ubuntu PPA) shouldn't say `wine-2.4` only because that can cause a lot of information to be lost when filing bug reports (or cause extranous work for the reporter). The output of `git describe` could be used since the git repository uses tags well.
