Flag `--version` says "Task version: unknown" (pacman)

[mattalxndr]

Description

Problem is, when I call the executable with the --version flag, I get weird output:

 % /usr/bin/go-task --version
Task version: unknown (8181352d)

Obviously, I'm expecting the version to be specified, like it has been in other builds, and like it is in the build provided by running the curl command I found on taskfile.dev Install page:

 % sh -c "$(curl --location https://taskfile.dev/install.sh)" -- -d -b ~/.local/bin

EDIT: In case the response is similar to #1889 (It's the pacman build's fault), I added an issue to the pacman tracker (needs auth):

See #2131. Adding this to the list of issues there.

Either way, we will get this fixed before the next release

This should be fixed in the next version 👍 Any more problems, please let us know
