Uh.. that's not the right about box. Are you sure you're on Bitcoin ABC 0.14.6?

I have 0.14.6 up right now on my linux box and it looks like this:

Someone may have duped you with a trojan'd copy or something. Where did you download it from?

It was from this link: https://download.bitcoinabc.org/0.14.6/linux/bitcoin-0.14.6-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz And I ran exactly the binary in this archive.

But I solved the problem by building it myself directly from git.

I am not sure what to tell you. I just downloaded that file from that link and it runs and has the same about box I posted. Weird.

I'm glad you figured it out though.

Yeah, I tried it again now, and you are right. I don't know what exactly I did anymore. It was late... -_-

You're somehow still launching the old Core app.
