Solved!
With the help of a co-worker, I used the -l parameter of patch to get
it to ignore whitespace. Prior to that, I kept getting hunk failures.
The command I used is:
patch –Cl –p0 < patch_name.patch
first to "Check" for errors and then just
patch –l –p0 < patch_name.patch.
Thank you Wiets
Wow...thank you Wietse!
I *think* I know how to apply this, but can someone confirm this for me -
I think I can just copy and paste your code into a file, name it, and then:
patch –p0 < /path/to/patch/patch_name.patch
Right so far?
What file am I applying the patch to? The "makedefs" file, rig
I'm new to Postfix (I'll admit) and I'm trying to be a diligent user,
so I've looked at the INSTALL file and some of the README files, but I
don't see anything that looks like a possible solution to my problem.
Do I need to pass Postfix a parameter telling it what type of OS I
have before it will
Solved! It WAS a bad download. I downloaded both the tarball and the
.sig file and got the following:
gpg: Signature made Wed Aug 1 15:14:44 2012 PDT using RSA key ID C12BCD99
gpg: Good signature from "Wietse Venema "
gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature!
gpg:
Will,
I *think* I have the key added to my keyring - isn't that what the:
gpg --import wietse.pgp
does???

O.K., thank you.
So, I guess, gnupg won't verify an RSA key?
Perhaps FreeBSD needs a different program other than gnupg or pgp to
verify this type of signature? How do most people verify the package
signature?

I'm running FreeBSD 9.0 and I've installed both pgp and gnupg.
I've downloaded postfix-2.9.4.tar.gz, postfix-2.9.4.tar.gz.sig,
wietse.pgp and I'm trying to verify the tarball signature.
I've taken the following steps (which I found at -
