>Description:
Some ports like russian/fortune-bashorgru install two versions of fortunes: one in KOI8-R encoding and one in UTF-8. the fortune intself can't recode data inplace, so there's a possibility to.

 1. Provide UTF-8 data.
 2. Recode fortune output.

I personally prefer to have original files in UTF-8 and recode them to any locale when needed. Can I adjust this port to contain not only KOI8-R version but a UTF-8 one too?

I'll postpone this for now. In one week if maintainer wouldn't come out I'll try to compose a patch.
