Subject: [bug#55920] [PATCH] build-system: chicken: Added insert-missing-version phase

From: Michal Atlas <[email-masked]>
Date: Sun, 12 Jun 2022 00:45:20 +0000

Many .egg files don't contain version information,
this causes `chicken-install` to label them {unknown},
which makes it fail compilations whenever a
dependency is tagged with a minimum-version.

I am unaware of a way to force this check to not-happen
and the version information should be included anyway,
so this patch should fix the problem.

 ;; It doesn't look like Chicken generates any unnecessary references.
 ;; So we don't have to remove them either. Nice.
