this version number (6.0.0-rc1) is currently hard coded within the CMake files of kicad. > $ grep 6.0.0-rc1 CMakeModules/* > CMakeModules/KiCadVersion.cmake:set( KICAD_VERSION "6.0.0-rc1-unknown" ) I'm currently to lazy to do any kind of patching this as this would resulting in differing the showed version number in Debian from all other packaging systems for KiCad. The reason behind the current used number '6.0.0' is grounded on the original next planed version number for KiCad. Unfortunately version 5.0.x has some significant issues regarding the changes happen to wxWidgets not only in Debian. So the KiCad project decided to do a version 5.1.x for fixing these issues and adding GTK+3 support to KiCad especially in/for Linux. This version string is no real problem, I guess Debian is now also hit by the newer GLM version which seems not be usable for the current HEAD in 5.1. -- Regards Carsten Schoenert
