I don't know exactly where the 2.0 is coming from. It's not in
/etc/os-release, /etc/devuan_version or /etc/issue, and there is no
/etc/lsb-release file.

man lsb_release says
"Detection of systems using a mix of packages from various
distributions or releases is something of a black art; the current
heuristic tends to assume that the installation is of the earliest
distribution which is still being used by apt but that heuristic is
subject to error."

It can't hurt to file a bug report. If you know how to fix it, let us know
and we can correct that in the future.
