[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#958999: igraph: the library and PC metadata report wrong version

[Jerome Benoit]

Source: igraph
Version: 0.8.1+ds-3
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

it appears that the version tuple encoded in the library
and in the pkg-config metadata is wrong. This can be a
development issue. The provided patch alters the upstream
script that generates on the fly the version tuple.
This patch generates a version tuple based on the verion
of the debian package.
Cheers,
Jerome
