Description

trying to get the version of the installed releasedocmaker fails due to a problem unwrapping our location

busbey-mba13:Downloads busbey$ releasedocmaker -V
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/Cellar/yetus/0.11.1/libexec/lib/releasedocmaker/releasedocmaker.py", line 26, in <module>
    releasedocmaker.main()
  File "/usr/local/Cellar/yetus/0.11.1/libexec/lib/releasedocmaker/releasedocmaker/__init__.py", line 728, in main
    options = parse_args()
  File "/usr/local/Cellar/yetus/0.11.1/libexec/lib/releasedocmaker/releasedocmaker/__init__.py", line 691, in parse_args
    os.path.dirname(__file__), "../VERSION"), 'r') as ver_file:
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/local/Cellar/yetus/0.11.1/libexec/lib/releasedocmaker/releasedocmaker/../VERSION'

workaround: ask test-patch for the version, since they presumably are the same

busbey-mba13:Downloads busbey$ test-patch --version
0.11.1
