Subject: How do you apply patches to source code?
Date: Mon, 26 May 2003 21:03:14 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <bass5l$5fk$1@main.gmane.org> (raw)
I have recently obtained the source code to an application as a .src.rpm
file. I have unbundled the code into /usr/src/RPMS/SOURCES. There are a
whole lot of .patch.bz2 files in the directory, as well as the main .tar.bz2
file.
How do I compile the program with the patches?
I realise this is probably an easy one, but I can't find any documentation
about applying patches.
Robert.
