   After upgrading to 2.6 (from 2.5.1), the version number is showing up in a few places as "abc" instead of "2.6".

   In index.php as <meta name="generator" content="WordPress abc" />
   In footer.php for template tag, <?php bloginfo('version'); ?>

   Version "2.6" does shows up correctly on the bottom of the Dashboard.

   Does anyone know what's wrong?

   Thanks.

   same problem here...

   EDIT:
   here is a nasty fix:
   change in version.php (/wp-includes/version.php):
   $wp_version = '2.6.1';
   in
   

   $wp_version = '2.6.1';
   $version = $wp_version;

   then in your footer.php:
   <?php echo $GLOBALS['version']; ?>

   This is just a temporary fix. When you update your blog, you should always repeat step one...
