I got this Info.plist file, but the Finder doesn't report my app's

Instead of saying "Version: 1.1" it doesn't even list the version
field :(
Any idea anyone? In case anyone wants to see the Info.plist file,
it is here:
The trouble all started when I changed my executable name. Before
then the version number did show up! But as far as I'm aware the
name does match. When I added the string "XXXX" (actually it's a
different string but just pretend it's XXXX)... then the Info.plist
file didn't work.
I did make sure that the executable name on disk does match with
the name in the plist. The names all match, yet it doesn't read.
Thoughts:
- I don't see either of the normal version info strings
CFBundleGetInfoString or CFBundleShortVersionString.
- Just to be sure, the value of CFBundleExecutable matches the name
of the executable in the MacOS folder, right?
- If you changed something inside the bundle you may need to force
Launch Services to update its information for the updated bundle.

I must be missing something, right?
