Any idea what's going wrong? Nothing! :-) The =E2=80=9C0.0-git=E2=80=9D string comes from (guix self). As noted ther= e, we can=E2=80=99t really afford to change the version string at each commit, or we=E2=80=99d = have to rebuild the manual at each commit. We could perhaps choose a more meaningful version string, though, maybe by looking at the closest tag or something. Thoughts? Ludo=E2=80=99.
