Is there any other file that can be used to read out the version number?($LazarusDir)\components\ide\version.inc
($LazarusDir)\components\ide\version.inc
($LazarusDir)\components\lazutils\lazversion.pas
It would be easier when the correct version is stored in the lazarus.exe because the update manager reads this information from EXE files and all other products work this way.This should normally be done. But as it appears errors can happen. (It is not automated).
($LazarusDir)\components\ide\version.inc

Anyway this can only be fixed for the next version.
