Re: Could this be a bug?

Andreas,

I was playing around with patch and tried "cat deepcolor.patch" | patch -p0".... IT WORKED!

This is certainly new behavior for patch. I wonder if it's planned?

Best regards,

George...

have a look at patch's manpage. Next, try "patch -p0 < ../deepcolor.patch".
