I'm running Arch Linux and using the ECWolf package on the AUR. It's listed as version 1.4.1-1 but the program says "1.4.1 (<unknown version>).
If you need a legitimate copy of Wolfenstein 3D, you can buy it from https://www.gog.com/en/game/wolfenstein_3d. It also includes Spear of Destiny.

Check the md5 sum of your wl6 files against the hashes published on the wiki: https://maniacsvault.net/ecwolf/wiki/Game_data

If they don't match and you've obtained the data files from a legitimate source then the patch utility on the ECWolf downloads page should take care of it.
