Description Roman Žilka 2013-03-24 12:12:35 UTC 
fortune-mod-1.99.1-r2 installs the symlink
/usr/share/man/man1/unstr.1.gz -> strfile.1.gz
but it is broken - unless the system happens to have manpages compressed with gzip, I guess. FWIW, I have PORTAGE_COMPRESS="".

Reproducible: Always

This is fixed in 2.1.11.60 and 2.2.0_alpha171.
