Fortune files with quotes by Felix von Leitner (https://blog.fefe.de) aka "$#!7 Fefe says"

Building & Installing

strfile(1) is part of the fortune package.

To build the fortune database, run

strfile fvl

or

strfile fvl-vendor

respectively.

The fortunes can then be installed (assuming your fortune directory is /usr/share/fortune) with:

cp fvl* /usr/share/fortune
