Markus Wigge dixit:
>Funny, and after "make update-patches" you still have the comments?
Of course? That's part of the design.
>And what if one single file is patched for different reasons?
Then the OLD system definitively sucks more than update-patches,
because if a file is patched several times, stuff like "which
.orig file belongs to which patch and which is my real pristine
file now", "which patch depends on which patch", etc. appears.
This point of yours seems to be the weak point of update-patches
at first, but if you work with it for a while, you see it's
actually an improvement. Plus, you always get diffs which are
guaranteed to apply. They're even applying with a greater chance
to succeed after you update the package. (You should still regen
them afterwards, but it helps the upgrader.)

That's up to the busybox subsystem maintainer. wbx and I aren't
forcing anyone. I just do want people to not think that the new
system is inferiour.
