Description Chris Henhawke (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-02-28 10:21:59 UTC 
On line 1395 of /usr/share/fortune/homer, there is a typo.

"Stupider like a fix" should read: "Stupider like a fox"

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install fortune-mod-homer
2. fortune homer -m fix
3. Profit!

Actual Results:  
Prints two fortunes containing the word fix.

Expected Results:  
Print one fortune containing the word fix. (There should only be one)

We're not going to carry spelling patches for the fortune files.  Let upstream know and we'll pick it up in the next release.

The fortune files are pretty variable in quality so it's a slippery slope toward lots of patching and other things like grammer checking, etc.
