pandoc -v returns improper version number on Windows #1030

Closed dtjohnso closed 11 years ago

dtjohnso commented 11 years ago

I just upgraded to 1.12.1, but pandoc -v returns the following:

I'm not sure if this is a real bug or a user issue on my part. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Please advise, thanks!

I found a folder in my Start menu for Pandoc that had two links to the User Guide and a link to an uninstaller. After I ran the uninstaller in there, pandoc -v returned the following:

I guess there must have been an old 1.10.1 version in my Windows user profile that didn't get superseded by 1.12.1.

I don't know if this would affect others, but I'll close the issue since this seems to take care of it for me anyway.

Yes, I believe that when I released 1.11, I had a note about uninstalling an old version of 1.10. It shouldn't be necessary in the future; the issue was that we changed installer methods to msi.
