The above info pertains to Solaris.
DESC: GNU Bourne-Again shell (bash) version 3.0
This is the version of bash.
Unfortunately, we can't update that when we deliver new versions in
patches, so relying on the DESC field is not useful. There is no
generic way to find the "upstream" version of software in a Solaris
package - you have to rely on the software to have a -v or --version
or equivalent.
