emerge --info

After fresh installation, fortune refuses to play the cookies in $PREFIX/usr/share/fortune, blaming "No fortunes found". Unless a symlink out of prefix /usr/share/fortune is created.

reproducible: always

~$ fortune
No fortunes found
~$ sudo ln -s $PREFIX/usr/share/fortune /usr/share/fortune 
~$ fortune
...though his invention worked superbly -- his theory was a crock of sewage from
beginning to end. -- Vernor Vinge, "The Peace War"

Strangely enough, the same package version worked with no issue when I emerged it first in september.

~$ genlop -l|grep fortune-mod-1.99.1-r2

Comment 1 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2012-03-03 11:43:29 UTC 
I fixed it now.  We didn't pass prefix=${EPREFIX} during make, hence non-offset locations were compiled into the fortune binary.

Thanks!
