sslproxy version bug?

[johnjohn]

FreeBSD 15.0 - a Debian Linux guest of VirtualBox for testing.
$ doas pkg install -y sslproxy-0.9.10,1

after installation:

$ sslproxy -V
WARNING: something is wrong with the version compiled into sslproxy!
The version should contain a release number and/or a git commit reference.
If using a package, please report a bug to the distro package maintainer.

I wonder if anyone else has noticed this warning or is it just me?

By web-searching the first line ("WARNING: something is wrong with the version compiled into sslproxy!"), I suspect it's nothing to worry about. This message seems to have been like that for years. I guess the developer uses a version system that doesn't match git's preferences, hence the warning.

Hi Alfredo, i searched for the warning and i see complaints dating back to 2020 even on Linux systems. Thanks for the reply. I'm moving on ...
