From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: "Robert" Subject: How do you apply patches to source code? Date: Mon, 26 May 2003 21:03:14 +1000 Sender: linux-newbie-owner@vger.kernel.org Message-ID: Reply-To: "Robert" Return-path: List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: linux-newbie@vger.kernel.org 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.
