Either you don't have the patches or there's a permissions
problem. The port files should look like this:-
bash---+--- Makefile
|
+--- files
|
+--- patches---+--- patch-aa
| |
| +--- patch-ab, etc
|
+--- pkg
If you have got the patches, make sure you have read permission on
them and that you have read an execute permission on the patches
directory itself. Or try doing the make as root.
