Description Roman 2022-12-26 18:45:31 UTC
1. Emerge dosbox-staging 0.80.0
2. Launch it, inside execute command 'ver'
3. It claims the release is 'DOSBox Staging version 0.80.0-alpha' (expected: 'DOSBox Staging version 0.80.0')

Problem seems to be Gentoo-specific. It does not occur if the official 0.80.0 tarball is compiled manually using the commands:

meson setup build/release
meson compile -C build/release

as described on the official build guide: https://github.com/dosbox-staging/dosbox-staging/blob/main/BUILD.md
