Details

Description: When running `dep version` it reports devel rather then the version (e.g. when installing package `community/dep 0.5.4-4` when running `dep version` you will get `version: devel`. This means scripts are not able to confirm that the correct version is installed.



Additional info:
* package version(s)
8.5.4-4 And probably others

* config and/or log files etc.
* link to upstream bug report, if any

Steps to reproduce:
```
> pacman -Sy dep
