Hi,
Perhaps a question for the dev list, but I've just pulled the latest
version from svn, r1603656, according to the output of svn. After compiling
and running it with --version, it reports:
# spamassassin --version
SpamAssassin version 3.4.1-r1567128
Did I do something wrong? Where did it get this version information from?
This number exists nowhere in the source or even in an strace of the
binary. Where is this release info stored?
Look for @EXTRA_VERSION in SpamAssassin.pm
It comes from an SVN tag in that file. It will only change when a revision
to SpamAssassin.pm is committed, it doesn't follow "the last commit
anywhere in the SA source tree".
That bit apparently gets commented out when building SA for official
release. You're seeing it because you're building from SVN trunk. Take a
look in build/README.
