-------------------------------------------------------
The workaround for this issue is simple - reinstall using the {{pip install
-e}} command. This will take care of updating the version in the package's
metadata.
Other ways I've considered for fixing the problems (using {{data_files}}, or
keeping {{VERSION}} under the {{aria}} package and using {{package_data}}) all
had various other disadvantages, and so assuming version updates don't happen
too often, this seemed to me to be the best viable solution for this problem.

> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Ran Ziv
> Assignee: Ran Ziv
> Priority: Minor
>
> When ARIA is installed in editable mode ({{pip install -e}}) for development
> purposes, and the version of the project changes (in the top-level
> {{VERSION}} file), the {{__version__}} field imported from the {{aria}}
> package (used in various places in the code) remains the one that got
> installed.
> This is because the version is not read from the {{VERSION}} file (which
> isn't kept after installation), but rather from the package's metadata (i.e.
> the version with which it got installed).
