Package: fortunes
Version: 1:1.99.1-3.1
Severity: minor
In /usr/share/games/fortunes/songs-poems, there is a 'translation' of
"Santa Claus is coming to town". It includes the stanza:
who | grep sleeping
who | grep awake
who | grep bad || good
for (goodness sake) {
be good
}
The 'grep bad || good' command doesn't actually look for who is "bad or good";
it looks for those who are bad, and if there are none, executes the 'good'
command. The line should be fixed to read:
who | grep 'bad\|good'
or
who | egrep 'bad|good'
--scott (demanding accuracy from my parodies)
