Details

Description:
`/usr/bin/gtest-config --version` is supposed to produce the current gtest version, however for gtest 1.8.1 (the latest version) it still prints "1.8.0".

Importance:
gtest v1.8.1 broke Mir (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mir-git/). I've fixed the issues, but I need to know the correct gtest version in the build process.

Steps to reproduce:
$ pacman -S gtest
$ pacman -Q gtest
gtest 1.8.1-1
$ /usr/bin/gtest-config --version
1.8.0
This task depends upon

This happened because upstream released a new version but did not update the version number in their code. In fact their configure.ac *still* reports itself as 1.8.0 on master.

Please ask them to fix their code and be more careful next time. It's not the first time they goofed like this.
