Details

Package version: 1.225_1-1

Description:

The netcat command doesn't show the correct version number when called with the -h option.

`nc -h |& head -n 1` shows `OpenBSD netcat (Debian patchlevel 1)` whereas it should show `OpenBSD netcat (Debian patchlevel 1.225-1)`.

For example, the version in Debian sid is shown as `OpenBSD netcat (Debian patchlevel 1.226-1)`

Replacing `pkgrel` with `pkgver/_/-` in CFLAGS in the PKGBUILD results in a version number consistent with Debian.
This task depends upon
