You're absolutely right. Some process HAS cleaned it up, as Marius said. If you desire to manually patch your source, the general procedure is: 1) ebuild /path/to/ebuild unpack 2) cd /var/tmp/portage/package-version/work/ 3) proceed with patching 4) ebuild /path/to/ebuild qmerge man 5 ebuild will tell you all of the steps of the process. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/Hf+mXVaO67S1rtsRAhZUAKD4/beGqdbufR0ZYU9ChJYRbIzF6gCfZ6ax C3rzkF6TOnF/HfDxUg68z0A= =P9u+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
