When writing rules for systems that use old YARA binaries, setting a target YARA version (3.8.1 for signature-base) for a project would help ensure that rules do not include keywords (e.g., base64, xor), conditions (e.g., for any section in pe.sections : ( section.name == ".text" )), or modules (e.g., console) that are not supported.

Similar checks can be done with CI and yara-python before commit, but that does not facilitate rule writing.
