next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Unfortunately, there are some people nowadays who distribute patches
in the incompatible format with our /usr/bin/patch, which are intended
for patch 2.5 and higher.
In most cases it is due to a patch's lack of an EOL at the end of the
file, however, just for the _one_ byte we always have to explain the
matter to the author to get the patch fixed. (sigh) Of course there
are some patches that essentially depend on patch 2.5's features.
So now, hereby I'd propose we introduce a new variable USE_NEWPATCH as
attached. That would help us in a few cases it won't pay us to bother
with.
Opinions? Onions? [Yeah, if I'd had fresh onions yesterday, I
could've put plenty of onion in the curry ;) ]
