[Bug 1773324] Re: rabbitmqadmin shows %%VSN%% as version

[Bryce Harrington]

Hi Alvin, thanks for giving this issue some attention.

Often, projects will have some infrastructure in place for tracking
their version.  I would suggest start by reviewing their release
directions, to see if they've documented where they set the number at
release.  Often there is a header/include file or a .in file somewhere,
that gets processed and inserted where it's needed at build time.   Or
just do a grep through the source for %%VSN%% and see what references
it.

If you don't find it quickly, let me know here or catch me on IRC and
I'll help you look.

Bug description:
  When running 'rabbitmqadmin --version' it shows %%VSN%% as the version
  information on Ubuntu 18.04 and not the correct rabbitmq version. We
  are using puppet to install and configure rabbitmq server and the
  puppet-rabbitmq modules [1] are using the version information from
  that command internally. Currently they are failing in Ubuntu 18.04.

  Used versions:

  Distributor ID: Ubuntu
  Description:    Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
  Release:        18.04
  Codename:       bionic
  rabbitmq-server: 3.6.10-1
