Description:
`dep version` returns devel though pacman says it's 0.5.4 this means when scripts do a version check it almost certainly fails :( any chance we could use a binary that reports the version?

Additional info:
affects all package versions found in archive.


Steps to reproduce:
```
> sudo pacman -S dep
