Package: logwatch
Version: 6.1.2-1
Severity: wishlist
Hi, the zz-fortune module currently doesn't support non C locale,
it can only display C fortunes. I'm using fr_FR.UTF-8 and get :
fortune: /usr/share/games/fortunes: No fortune files in directory.
fortune:/usr/share/games/fortunes not a fortune file or directory
No fortunes found
because i have only installed fortunes-fr. It would be nice to have
a option to configure LC_ALL. As i workaround, i have modified
/usr/share/logwatch/scripts/services/zz-fortune
to

if (($ENV{'PRINTING'} eq "y" ) && (-e "/usr/games/fortune")) {

- system("/usr/games/fortune");
+ system("LC_ALL=fr_FR.UTF-8 /usr/games/fortune");
print "\n";
}
so i can get my fortune.
Thanks.
