Hello!
Sometimes when I open a terminal window, and Fortune promptly displays
an appropriately witty saying, I then see the quote from Star Trek
surface. That's okay I created a script to do so based on one used by
my Linux system.

However this time when I invoked one using the bash as a command
window terminal screen for Windows, I saw a qoute from the second
pilot episode, the one said by Sally Kellerman as Liz Denhner a
psychiatrist.

Reason for this one is that it has her last name spelled wrong. For
example on my Linux system who's running either a 2.6 series kernel it
is spelled as I spelled it, and the same for a system running one from
2.4 series.

The only time I saw that one surface was one the kernel version was
2.2.18, and the release for Fortune was from the bsd-games-2.1.1
release.

Who among the group of package builders I should inform regarding this mistake?
