Bug Description
Prints /usr/bin/
Cant determine which package it resides in or the binary version.
Running Linux Mint LXDE (Linux debian 2.6.32-5-amd64 #1 SMP Mon Mar 7 21:35:22 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux). Updated at 3:30pm Friday 15th April 2011 AEST
Occurs when a new terminal window is open
Expect the fortune to be displayed instead of the error message seen above
Happens all the time
Fixed by editing line 35 of /usr/bin/
if [ "$showfortunes" == "true" ]; then
instead of
if [ $showfortunes == "true" ]; then
Also needed to add flag in gconf using
gconftool-2 --set /desktop/
This resolved the issue

I changed only line 35 to:
if [ $showfortunes= "true" ]; then
