Arch Linux

Summary and Info:

python-plubmum 1.7.0-3 is reporting the wrong version number in egg-info metadata.

$ pacman -Qi python-plumbum | grep -i version
Version : 1.7.0-3
$ grep -R 1.7.0 /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/plumbum
/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/plumbum/version.py:version = '1.7.0'

However,

$ pacman -Ql python-plumbum | grep egg-info
python-plumbum /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/plumbum-0.0.0-py3.9.egg-info/
python-plumbum /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/plumbum-0.0.0-py3.9.egg-info/PKG-INFO
python-plumbum /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/plumbum-0.0.0-py3.9.egg-info/SOURCES.txt
python-plumbum /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/plumbum-0.0.0-py3.9.egg-info/dependency_links.txt
python-plumbum /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/plumbum-0.0.0-py3.9.egg-info/requires.txt
python-plumbum /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/plumbum-0.0.0-py3.9.egg-info/top_level.txt

(note the "0.0.0" in the directory name)

$ grep ^Version: /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/plumbum-0.0.0-py3.9.egg-info/PKG-INFO
Version: 0.0.0

This result in pkg_resources detects incompatibility with requirements, e.g. "pkg_resources.ContextualVersionConflict: (plumbum 0.0.0 (/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages), Requirement.parse('plumbum>=1.4.2'), {'walt-common', 'walt-client'})"



Steps to Reproduce:

Just check python-plumbum package files.
