fedora's fortune binary rpm ships without the offensive fortunes and wo the -o flag.

fedora's fortune binary rpm ships without the offensive fortunes and wo the `-o` flag.

I fail to understand the problem. I see that the fedora build script sets -DNO_OFFENSIVE=TRUE, but commit e88b1d7 seems to handle this flag as expected. More accurately, on my computer: # rm -fr build; mkdir build; cd build # cmake .. -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE:BOOL=ON --debug-output # make enables the -o fortune option in the executable. generates the documentation for -o in the manual page creates build/datfiles/off/. # rm -fr build; mkdir build; cd build # cmake .. -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE:BOOL=ON --debug-output -DNO_OFFENSIVE=TRUE # make disables the -o fortune option in the executable, does not document it in the manual page and does not create build/datfiles/off/.

Given these two issues seem to be the raison d'etre of this merge-request, I don't see a point to merging it.

@asarhaddon : what do you think?

( I appreciate the previous merge-requests you sent.)
