Bug Description

fish 3.3.1+ds-2 contains a mistake in the packaging which renders `fish --version` inoperable; this causes other packages which try to check the version to fail, and users to report multiple bugs to the upstream developers (including me).

The Debian bug report is https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1001583

The upstream reports include:
https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/8580
https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/8689

Please do not include this broken package in your LTS release. (There are other important bugs as well, such as https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1001584 .)
