Installed Whonix Version

How can I find out the version of the installed Whonix system?

2

cat /etc/whonix_version

3

I know. This is the major version. The minor versions are missing.

Don’t know how to find it.
But perhaps it isn’t marked on a file because:

  • point releases are for users to download and install whonix with the new software already installed
  • notify the users about what has changed
  • for current users to simply update the packages with apt

Debian does not show minor releases also.
cat /etc/os-release

Doesn’t exist.

The minor versions are shown with:

systemcheck --verbose --function show_versions

7

Doesn’t really show 16.0.5.3.

8

What does it show?
