I opted to reply to your mail after reading all the other replies. FWIW, I agree with you and have been doing that for desktop-effects and KDE packages. Whenever we need to add a patch we do it as ${P}. If that patch is not applied upstream and is needed for future versions, I rename the patch to ${PN} to "decouple" it from a particular ${PV}. > Cheers, > Alin > - -- Regards, Jorge Vicetto (jmbsvicetto) - jmbsvicetto at gentoo dot org Gentoo- forums / Userrel / Devrel / SPARC / KDE -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAknG6MkACgkQcAWygvVEyAJQkQCfRaf8IsqB89+AoZUL77gPdynH Y5QAoJEXoQoBELvvIbW1mEqzVl0R0Azx =joA9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
