linux cataclysm --version and main menu report wrong version in 0.G release about cataclysm-dda HOT 3 CLOSED

This is valid and all but 0.G will not receive further backports, especially since 0.H is quite close. Plus this is more or less a cosmetic issue which is not catastrophic and thus not in particular need of backporting. It was fixed in #70663 for stable and in #70664 for experimental.

Thanks for the thorough report though.

I agree a backport is unnecessary, but could I suggest editing the Github release description text to add that "yes,, the linux folder/file says 0.F but it's actually 0.G, trust us"? I don't think that would require an actual new build or trigger any automated workflows.

Since this looks like a downstream packaging issue at first glance, it would save whoever notices the same thing a few hours tracing the packaging and build pipeline for the apparent issue.

In any case, I appreciate the acknowledgement and look forward to being just as hopelessly but enjoyably overwhelmed with 0.H.

There were some versioning issues with 0.G but it is, indeed, just late for us to bother fixing them. We're a matter of weeks from H.
