LyX 2.3.5.1/2.3.5-1 Naming Inconsistency

LyX Developers,

Recently, I was working with lyx-2.3.5.1.tar.gz (retrieved from
http://ftp.math.utah.edu/pub/lyx/stable/2.3.x/).

The filename is 2.3.5.1 but extracts, by default (using tar -zxvf), to the
directory lyx-2.3.5-1.

I know this is an abnormal situation/release, but this inconsistency makes
scripted handling of the file inconvenient.

Should/can the filename and resulting directory be made consistent in the
future?

Thank you,
Joel
