Bug Description
I was happy to see that a new version of Inkscape was available, so I dutifully built, then installed it, launching the program to see how it performs.
One tiny thing I noticed right off is that it reports the version as 0.92.2, even though the source is most definitely for 0.92.3.
A quick bit of checking around indicated that the fix the version correct looked ridiculously simple, and a rebuild with the attached patch and relaunch to check the version confirmed that I was correct.
Of course, this is a very minor issue, but I'm sure that you want the proper version to display from the Help -> About window.
Thanks for creating and maintaining such an excellent program that I have been using for nearly ten years straight now.

Thanks^^
The reason for this bug is that we don't use autotools to build but cmake so this has escaped our attention (but we still plan to maintain autotools for the 0.92.x branch, so it's a valid problem)
Fix committed in https:/ /gitlab. com/inkscape/ inkscape/ commit/ d2272d93fce0df8 0d2cbf5b17af9d8 f6cf074edb , not sure if we need a new release tarball ?
