Description of problem: anaconda does not support --version. It would be nice to know the version when operating in an install or rescue environment, especially in the development phase. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-11.5.0.59-1.fc11 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run: anaconda --version Actual results: Usage: anaconda [options] anaconda: error: no such option: --version Expected results: Something like: anaconda version 11.5.0.60 Additional info: Note that 'rpm -q anaconda' does not work in an install or rescue environment -- there's no RPM database.
Is the environment variable $ANACONDAVERSION not set?
Honestly, this isn't going to happen. anaconda displays its version number whenever it starts up, so rescue mode or the install can always be restarted if you really need to catch the version number. We will, however, consider patches.
