FYI - I saw numerous questions about "ipa" tool backward compatibility (the
most recent is https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1089015), so I
created a section about it:

and added it to FAQ.


Looking for the version in an internal module doesn't strike me as the best
method. Especially if you have to add a warning to not change the file. (And
changing it is just "discouraged"? Really?)

I specifically added the warning about changing it because this is what the
user in the Bugzilla did and I really want to discourage people doing that. If
you have better wording in mind, please feel free to improve :-)

I'd rather not mention it at all; saying "here is a stupid thing you really shouldn't do" will just make people do it.

Should we add API version to the env, and recommend running `ipa env
api_version` instead?

Maybe. It would also not hurt to have --version option so that:

# ipa --version

Prints you the package and the API version...
