i'm trying to apply the OpenSSH watchdog/heartbeat patch to the Fink OpenSSH package. i can't figure out how to do this. specifically, i can't figure out how to make Fink pause after unpacking the source, so i can go in and apply the patch, and then make Fink continue configuring & building. the former works with 'fetch', but the latter doesn't work with 'build' because build re-fetches the tarball.

You can't pause the build that way. You could, however, modify the package's .info file to include your patch (the Patches: line).
hey, it worked! thanks! i now have a fink-built openssh that includes Hideaki Goto's watchdog-heartbeat patch.
for general edification, here's what i did:
-- got the patch from here:
http://www.sc.isc.tohoku.ac.jp/~hgot/sources/openssh-watchdog.html-- unpacked it and moved the patch file to /sw/fink/10.2/stable/crypto/finkinfo
-- edited /sw/fink/10.2/stable/crypto/finkinfo/openssh-3.5p1-2.info, adding the
name of the patch to the Patch: line, separated by a space. ( i already had the
info file on my disk because i've only tried to install this package 100 times
or so ... if you've never tried to install openssh under fink before, i have no idea
if the .info file would be there or not. i guess just install it once before
you follow these instructions ...)
-- fink applies its patches with the -p1 flag, which strips one level of pathname off every file entry in the patch. the watchdog patch wasn't
built with that in mind, so i had to edit the patch file to add one level of
pathname to each filename in the file, so that patch could strip it off again.
ugh. so for instance, these lines:
--- > *** servconf.h.orig Thu Aug 1 10:28:39 2002 > --- servconf.h Sun Oct 20 17:08:33 2002
were edited to become these lines:
< *** openssh-3.4p1/servconf.h.orig Thu Aug 1 10:28:39 2002
< --- openssh-3.4p1/servconf.h Sun Oct 20 17:08:33 2002
-- 'fink rebuild openssh' ... and presto.
fink is great. thanks Alexander for your tip.
