Thanks Frantisek, Alberto and Marius! I think I will use the osso-product-info command as this seems to be the "best" way for me to do it. With the other solutions I have some problems: * /etc/osso_software_version does not exist on my N900. * pkg-config is only for *-dev packages and does not exist (by default) on the N900. * Checking for the feature is not possible, as the "feature" is a bug in some preinstalled library and I don't know in which one. I need this check because I need to figure out whether or not this bug exists and if yes change a couple of files to work around it. So checking for the OSSO_PRODUCT_RELEASE_VERSION with the osso-product-info command should work for me. Thanks for all the suggestions!
