Quoting Eitan Adler <eitanadlerl...@gmail.com> (from Fri, 09 Jan 2009 16:03:49 -0500):

I think that these three files bring ee up to date from 1.4.2 to 1.4.6.

Sorry, but the patch as is is wrong fore sure. I've seen "lp" instead of "lpr", and even at least one wrong path. For other paths I would have to check to say something definitive. A little bit more work is needed to get an update of this into FreeBSD. How did you proceeded to have a look at the update?

Here's how I would do it:
 1) diff the version we have with the same version of the vendor
   + in case of a difference the functionaility needs to be
     forward ported
 2) diff the vendor src of the version of what we have with the
    next version after it
 3) add the differences to our version taking 1) into account
    and taking care if some path which may be in the new version
    is OK for us
 3.5) if in doubt, ask here, together with a description of what is
       changed / improved / new
 4) repeat from 2) until the most recent version is reached

Bye,
Alexander.
