So I think I know where the “Unknown” came from.
Basically, when building from something other than git, there is no
.version file (make dist used to build this I think) which results in the
process having no idea what the package version. I need to think about
ways to fix this — I had not built a “SOURCE” package, but it appears we
actually need a separate SOURCE package.

format documentation. But it's entirely optional to do so. Getting ruby
So Ruby is a requirement - and all of its dependencies - if you want to
for most platforms is usually close to trivial. And I think asciidoctor
should be platform neutral. If it isn't packaged for other platforms that
might just be due to lack of effort at the distro.
So in the context of source-based Linux distributions like Gentoo,
this means that formatting documentation will for many people require
first building libyaml, ragel, ruby, rubygems, rake, racc, json, rdoc
and finally asciidoctor. To me, the cost/benefit of that is totally
wrong.
As far as the Unknown thing - that's a mystery to me. What version ofcmake were you using ?
I have cmake-3.3.1 installed.
