Same here. Under Linux, that is all you can do (as far as I know). No desktop environment (like KDE, Gnome, XFCE etc) has a "Version Information" tab in the file properties.
As for libraries, Linux (and most *nix systems) have a well established naming convention where the version number is part of the filename. I find this actually better than Windows - thus you can have multiple versions installed at the same time.
