I think it would be good to still include the semantic version (or development line version), for the human: AC_INIT([VM],[8.3.x-]m4_esyscmd([git describe --abbrev=7 --dirty --always --tags | tr -d '\n'],[[email protected]]) Probable even better to have a second variable like vm-commit. However, just add to vm-version would be great for now . > I suspect we should just got with debian 11 as our base, along with > Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, if it's still accepting updates.
