I am interested in helping to port some Unix software to Mac OS X with Fink; but I am not familiar with packaging systems.
I've read the packaging manual which was very useful to understand .info files. But I did not find any information about creating a .patch file.
By looking at some .patch files in /sw, I have understood I should run the diff command on every file I have patched to make the software able to compile on Mac OS X and copy and paste the results in a .patch file, am I right?
Is there some guidelines to follow in order to create .patch files?
Thank you for your help, and please remember I am just a beginner with Fink.
