Librem 14: How to fetch EC firmware version?

Hardware
1

I’ve noticed Purism has written a blog post on how to upgrade the EC firmware, both via hardware and an ISO on a USB stick. Before I do that, how do I figure out which version I have, so I can avoid an unnecessary flashing?

I received my Librem 14 in September 2021 and have since upgraded pureboot to 18.1. I searched the forum for an answer and could not find it, so my apologies if it’s answered somewhere else.

gzip -d purism_ectool.gz
chmod 755 ./purism_ectool
sudo ./purism_ectool version
