Easy way to find debugger version number (How does one get the version number of the VS Code debugger?) #2123

How does one get the version number of the VS Code debugger ptvsd?

I've been trying to google how to get the debugger number for ptvsd. Perhaps a feature where it makes it easy to find it? An individual setting for it?

At the very least I hope this feature request makes it googleable/searchable:

The only supported way is to import it and then access __version__. Ditto for debugpy, which is the more interesting one at the moment (ptvsd won't see any further changes).
