Research direction
Start from the nixpkgs package definition for cue and inspect where its -ldflags version injection is configured. Remove that obsolete argument and verify that the package still builds and that cue version reports the expected version from the git tag.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
We have been stamping versions into cue binaries from VCS since v0.15.0; see https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/270529 for example.
It seems like you already build from a git tag, so cue version should already work correctly. You can remove the -ldflags version injection, as it no longer does anything.
