Package: fortunes Version: 1:1.99.1-3 Severity: minor Tags: patch The Match Game quote at the end of /usr/share/games/fortunes/humorists, has a couple of small errors.
First, the "The young people are very different..." ditty is misattributed. His name is Nipsey Russell, not Lipsy Russell. (This required adjusting the spacing of the whole thing.) Second, I corrected what's likely a typo: "Kids to use to" to "Kids used to". Thanks for maintaining such a cool package, and for your work in Debian in general! What I hope is a useful patch follows (I don't do this much): diff -ur fortune-mod/datfiles/humorists fortune-mod.new/datfiles/humorists --- fortune-mod/datfiles/humorists 2009-05-06 01:00:46.000000000 -0500 +++ fortune-mod.new/datfiles/humorists 2009-05-06 01:07:40.000000000 -0500 @@ -1016,17 +1016,17 @@ % FORTUNE'S RANDOM QUOTES FROM MATCH GAME 75, NO. 1: - Gene Rayburn: We'd like to close with a thought for the day, friends --- - something ... + Gene Rayburn: We'd like to close with a thought for the day, friends --- + something ... - Someone: (interrupting) Uh-oh + Someone: (interrupting) Uh-oh - Gene Rayburn: ...pithy, full of wisdom --- and we call on the Poet - Laureate, Lipsy Russell + Gene Rayburn: ...pithy, full of wisdom --- and we call on the Poet + Laureate, Nipsey Russell -Lipsy Russell: The young people are very different today, and there is - one sure way to know: Kids to use to ask where they came - from, now they'll tell you where you can go. +Nipsey Russell: The young people are very different today, and there is + one sure way to know: Kids used to ask where they came + from, now they'll tell you where you can go. - All: (laughter) + All: (laughter) % -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers oldstable APT policy: (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.24.2-ahpax1 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages fortunes depends on: ii fortune-mod 1:1.99.1-3 provides fortune cookies on demand ii fortunes-min 1:1.99.1-3 Data files containing fortune cook fortunes recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
