Hello,

Is there any way to check the package version with the python API? I
already use 'requiredtool' marker, but apparently it is not enough. My
host machine (Ubuntu 18.04) has mksquashfs at its version 4.3, without
zstd support. However, v4.4 has such support, and I had to download it
and build it myself to use zstd compression. The tests will fail if the
user has an older version of mksquashfs installed. Would you have any
suggestion on how to proceed?

Best regards,
Joao
