This is most likely my falt. And if so I take responsiblitly. However, would like to point out that to some extent the having a tree that both includes patches and has them pre-applied seems to be somewhat error prone. I am wondering if any advancements have been made on this in the 2.6 tree. > > I have already cleaned up the patches -3 and -4 (which didn't apply > cleanly) and am currently preparing a new revision of the package. That does surprise me. I am pretty sure I checked several times to make sure they applied cleanly. In fact I suspect that any source packages that were released without the paches being pre-applied were the result of me checking patch and patch -R. In any case, Have you pushed these your fixes into svn? -- Horms
