Description Hasan Calisir 2021-08-15 17:00:07 UTC
Minor but important error.
It breaks scripts that depend specific version of jq.

----------------------------------------------------
jq --version
jq-jq_version
----------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------
jq --help
jq - commandline JSON processor [version jq_version]
----------------------------------------------------

Possibly blamed line in ebuild;
-------------------------------
sed -r -e "s:(m4_define\(\[jq_version\],) .+\):\1 \[${PV}\]):" -i configure.ac || die

There seems to have been progress on this, however now the version is "-"

$ jq --version
jq--

Not really an improvement.
