Found in Spacemacs. However, it seems the bug belong here (see detailed report in syl20bnr/spacemacs#13906).

I haven't tried to reproduce it in plain Emacs yet. (Please ping me in case you need me to.)

I've been using the same approach to infer the package version in other Emacs packages I maintain and this is the first time I hear this doesn't work properly with use-package. After all you need to load the file eventually and then the version should be set properly.

Thanks for your feedback, @bbatsov! I have forwarded it to the Spacemacs maintainers. Let's see what happens there...

syl20bnr/spacemacs#13906 has just been closed :-)

I hit this problem with regular emacs (GNU Emacs 26.3 (build 2, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.22.30) of 2019-09-16) very often :/
What helps is removing sayid.elc file before emacs starts.
