- [The latest patch for patch version 2.0 is #5.]
-
- mailpatch speaking for lwall
-
- System: patch version 2.0
- Patch #: 5
- Priority: HIGH
- Subject: Patch misplaces patches when fuzz factor > 0
- Authorial-Remark: OOPS.
- From: erix!per (Per Hedeland)
-
- Description:
- If a fuzz factor > 0 is used when applying a patch hunk, it will
- be applied (fuzz factor) lines too far into the file.
-
- Fix: Since patch_match starts checking "fuzz" lines into the patch,
- it must (of course) add "fuzz" to the starting point in the
- file as well.
-
- From rn, say "| patch -d DIR", where DIR is your patch source
- directory. Outside of rn, say "cd DIR; patch <thisarticle".
- If you don't have the patch program, apply the following by hand,
- or get patch.
-
- If patch uses a fuzz factor to apply this, you're screwed.
-
- If patch indicates that patchlevel is the wrong version, you may need
- to apply one or more previous patches, or the patch may already
- have been applied. See the patchlevel.h file to find out what has or
- has not been applied. In any event, don't continue with the patch.
-
- If you are missing previous patches they can be obtained from me:

- Larry Wall
- {allegra,burdvax,cbosgd,hplabs,ihnp4,sdcsvax}!sdcrdcf!lwall
-
- If you send a mail message of the following form it will greatly speed
- processing:
-
- Subject: Command
- @SH mailpatch PATH patch 2.0 LIST
- ^ note the c
-
- where PATH is a return path FROM ME TO YOU in bang notation, and LIST
- is the number of one or more patches you need, separated by spaces,
- commas, and/or hyphens. Saying 35- says everything from 35 to the end.
- You can also get them by anonymous FTP from sdc-camarillo.arpa.
