Well, I found a fairly simple solution the problem. If I manually modify th= e=20 patch file and add the correct relative path to the file listing in the top= =20 couple of lines within the patch file.=20 e.g. -- filetopatch.c changed to -- src/filetopatch.c the problem corrects itself.=20 So, I now have two options.=20 1. I can contact the maintainer of this patch and have him make these=20 corrections. 2. Somehow figure out how to directly modify this file from within the=20 Makefile. Any suggestions on how this can be accomplished within the Makefile? Maybe a post-extract or pre-patch command? I see some referenced command=20 within bsd.port.mk <http://bsd.port.mk>, but I do not see them defined=20 anywhere.
