dnl The package_version file will be automatically synced to the git 
revision
dnl by the update_version script when configured in the repository, but will
dnl remain constant in tarball releases unless it is manually edited.
m4_define([CURRENT_VERSION],
           m4_esyscmd([ ./update_version 2>/dev/null || true
                        if test -e package_version; then
                            . ./package_version
                            printf "$PACKAGE_VERSION"
                        else
                            printf "unknown"
                        fi ]))

Not working for me.
:-(

This:-
$ git clone --depth 1 git://git.xiph.org/opus.git
$ cd opus
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure

Then this:-
$ cat package_version | grep "PACKAGE_VERSION"
PACKAGE_VERSION="unknown"


Also...

This:-
$ git clone --depth 1 git://git.xiph.org/opus-tools.git
$ cd opus-tools
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure

Then this:-
$ cat package_version | grep "PACKAGE_VERSION"
PACKAGE_VERSION="unknown"

But that's because I used shallow clones!

Works OK without the "--depth 1".

$ cat package_version | grep "PACKAGE_VERSION"
PACKAGE_VERSION="1.1-beta-24-ga32fa31"

$ cat package_version | grep "PACKAGE_VERSION"
PACKAGE_VERSION="0.1.7-9-g4d0df2b"
