IMO a version is counter-productive for the packages which are distributed with Lazarus,
since their revisions are syncronized anyway.

I suggest (for all built-in packages, not just lazfppkg) either leave the field blank or
introduce some special token meaning "same version as Lazarus".

The packages have different maturity and are maintained by different people. IMO the decision is up to the package maintainer.
