Yeah, we haven't made it explicit yet by changing the patching logic, but we have decided at the last Buildroot Developer meeting to do the following: """ --------------------------------------------------------------------- 7. Infrastructure for applying patches, i.e. how should patches be named --------------------------------------------------------------------- Non-versioned patches package/foo/-*.patch Versioned patches package/foo/version/-*.patch Patches are either versioned, or they are not. Versioned patches should only be created for packages that have multiple supported versions. """ This was part of the Developer meeting report sent to the list by Arnout on February, 16th 2012.
