+1 for the "one patch for each problem" approach when it is feasible. Occasionally this approach gets complicated during upstream version updates because there are multiple patches against the same build system or source files. When that happens, I try to to refactor the patches with the new version update. But otherwise, I think it's better to keep patches separated. Cheers, tony
