Thought about that, but then discarded it since i think it will not be a good 
solution.

Let's say we run this just in time for the KDE Applications 17.08.0 release, 
for kpat it would create a 17.08.0 verison, but kpat is at version 3.6, so 
it's unnecessary noise in the version list.

The important thing about this is that if we have the correct version number 
using the Help->Report bug actually works instead of selecting "unspecified".
