--------------C407CCCB86990241D792942B Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hello I'm trying to work a port. I need to write a patchfile. I tried sevaral possibilities diff (and and without option like -unR, especially -u) config.in.orig config.in and placed it in teh files directory. Each time I do patch -p0 < patch-ah (the name of the patch, it's OK). But as I try make patch. the system complains about reversed patches previously applied. It's true, other previous patches have been applied to the config.in file. What could I do ? In other terms, what is the good way to write patch files for a port ?
