Talking about fortune(6), why has it stopped working? The binary (or is 
it a perl script?) seems to have disappeared on my system - 6-STABLE, 
although I'm sure it disappeared sometime whilst running 5-STABLE. The 
fortune data files are there (though looking at the timestamps, they're 
out of date), just no binary/script.
