Bug Description
Syncthing (1.1.4~ds1-4) in Eaon results in *other* clients (eg, one running 1.0.1) reporting the error "Not sending symlinks to old client {EAON CLIENT} - please upgrade to v0.14.14 or newer". It appears that it reports its version as "unknown-dev". From the log of the 1.0.1 client:
2019-10-07 06:05:13 Device {DEVICE ID} client is "syncthing unknown-dev" named "{DEVICE NAME}" at {IP ADDRESS}/tcp-server
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
