Description

Image

It says v(uutils coreutils) 0.0.30 but we only need to say v0.0.30 or something like that. This might also be a good moment to think about whether we want to show the version in some other way, because it's not really tied to the util, but to the whole coreutils package.

Note that we can't just delete (uutils coreutils) from the version string to fix this because that was done intentionally here: https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/pull/7441

Research direction

Start by locating the documentation text shown in the attached image and review the rationale in pull request #7441 before choosing the package-level version wording. Done means the documentation no longer presents the version as tied to an individual utility and reflects the agreed format.
