Description Nuno Silva 2020-06-20 17:09:20 UTC
games-misc/wtf-20200518 installs four acronym files:
- /usr/share/misc/acronyms
- /usr/share/misc/acronyms.comp
- /usr/share/misc/acronyms-o.fake
- /usr/share/misc/acronyms-o.real

From the manpage and the contents of acronyms-o.fake, it looks like only one of the two (.fake, .real) should be installed, and that the chosen one should be installed as acronyms-o.

Perhaps the ebuild could use the "offensive" USE flag. But even if this is not added, I suppose acronyms-o.real should be installed as acronyms-o, to match the online manual.

(Note that this does not affect the ability to search for offensive acronyms, as wtf searches all files (under /usr/share/misc/) whose name starts with "acronyms".)

Reproducible: Always
