Given a filename -- either basename(1) for full path -- epigrams are select= ed as expected. The search path appears to function as expected.=20=20 Easy workaround appears to be either change the default filename ('fortunes= ') or rename /usr/share/games/fortune/freebsd-tips to /usr/share/games/fortune/fortunes (with their compiled versions named appropriately, for course). Calling "fortune all" appears to work as expected, pulling from all availab= le files in the search path. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
