Subject: Canonical location for emacs-version string in source tree?
Date: Thu, 20 May 2010 16:57:12 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <loom.20100520T184708-375@post.gmane.org> (raw)

Gentoo GNU/Linux's packaging of emacs bzr trunk recently adapted to a bzr
changeset that removed one of the several copies of emacs-version (e.g.
"24.0.50") found in the source tree [1].

Can one of these locations in the source tree  (i.e. emacs.c or configure.in) be
designated as the canonical location for packagers to find the version string?

Thanks,
Jeff Kowalczyk
