On the system where I'm building with cmake that file contains:

 # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

"""
Contains static and global variables for MythTV Python Bindings
related to version information.
The file MythTV/_versions.py is usually generated by ./configure.
"""

OWN_VERSION = (35,0,-1,0)
SCHEMA_VERSION = 1384
NVSCHEMA_VERSION = 1007
MUSICSCHEMA_VERSION = 1025
PROTO_VERSION = '91'
PROTO_TOKEN = 'BuzzOff'
BACKEND_SEP = '[]:[]'
INSTALL_PREFIX = '/usr'
