      %version is an unusual mangling; I think we only use this for
generating RPMs - so git grep is really your friend in this regard:

$ git grep %version
solenv/bin/modules/installer/epmfile.pm:    # %version 2.0
solenv/bin/modules/installer/epmfile.pm:    # This release version has to be listed in the line 
%version : %version versionnumber releasenumber
solenv/bin/modules/installer/epmfile.pm:    $line = "%version" . " " . 
$installer::globals::packageversion . "\n";
sysui/desktop/freedesktop/freedesktop-menus.spec:Version: %version
sysui/desktop/mandriva/mandriva-menus.spec:Version: %version
sysui/desktop/mandriva/mandriva-menus.spec:%define menuversion %(echo %version|cut -d'.' -f 1-2)
sysui/desktop/suse/suse-menus.spec:Version: %version

      So it clearly comes from $installer::globals somehow. Of course, the
other way to hunt this down is probably to go top-down instead of bottom
up. All variables from configure are propagated to the code via
config_host.mk (which is generated from the .in by running configure /
autogen.sh).

      There we have things like:

export PRODUCTNAME=LibreOffice
export PRODUCTVERSION=3.7

      Which seems to suggest this is all configureable via configure.

I am afraid that the configure version is not propagated to the rpm spec
file Version tag :-(

I think that the perl installer
(solenv/bin/modules/installer/epmfile.pm) takes the values from
instsetoo_native/util/openoffice.lst

The destop integration packages are another story. They are built
separately in the sysui module. You might want to look at
sysui/desktop/productversion.mk and solenv/inc/productversion.mk.

Note that touching these variables might have strange side effects
because they are used on different locations during build, installation
and runtime.

Any volunteer who would like to clean up the mess is welcome.


Best Regards,
Petr
