Kleopatra: Rework versioning
Open, NormalPublic
Actions

Description

For the Gpg4win (and related builds) we want

  • Kleopatra shows version of Gpg4win (or GPD, etc.) in About window
  • Kleopatra shows its version including the git revision in Components tab

Open questions:

  • The manifest file currently uses description "GNU Privacy Guard (Kleopatra)", assemblyIdentity.name "GnuPG.kleopatra", and version @kleopatra_version_win@.0.
  • The versioninfo.rc file currently uses @kleopatra_fileversion_win@ as FILEVERSION and PRODUCTVERSION.
  • The versioninfo.rc file currently uses @kleopatra_version_win@ as FileVersion value and ProductVersion value.
  • kleopatra_version_win is the built-in 3-digit version number of kleopatra.
  • kleopatra_fileversion_win is a 4-digit comma-separated version number consisting of the built-in major, minor, and micro version and a 0.

Shall these version numbers match the Gpg4win version instead of the built-in kleopatra version? Or shall only the product version match the Gpg4win version?

Is this what you had in mind @werner:

Yes. If gpgconf could read that version directly from kleopatra it would be even better. Bit in cases of early crashes this might be sub-optimal; thus I will tell gpgconf to get some additional version info from an installed versioninfo.txt file (which gpg4win creates). Thanks.
