I am making a port which patches the distribution with a large upgrade patch. (by a separate patch command in a replacement do-patch target) This works OK, but the first few chunks don't take. Patch continues and patches the rest of the files. This doesn't matter, as the rejected chunks affect only the table of files present - but it makes patch (and so the makefile) exit with error code 5. Neither man patch or man sh were helpful. (although I may have missed something in man sh) Does anyone know how I can stop the makefile exiting when patch does? Thanks, Michael. -- Michael Searle - searle@longacre.demon.co.uk
