Yes, these packages don't really have version numbers nowadays, it's
a remnant of the past.  We should definitely remove the `<foo>-version`
variables in those cases.  The "Version:" header can be marginally
useful in some cases (I've used those things a few times last year while
digging into our past), so it'd be good to keep it somewhere, tho
I agree that it doesn't need to appear in the list of packages with
their version numbers.
