On the tip front, a couple more:
To undo a patch just applied, insert the 'reverse' option, --R-.
Code:
--------------------
patch -R ... rest of original patch line
--------------------
This helpful if the patch fails in full or in part for some reason
(rejects).
On the standard Debian installation, the plugin directories and files
have owner -squeezeboxserver- and group -nogroup-. (Check this with -ls
-l- before you patch.)
As you will probably be patching with the -sudo- command, you might do:
Code:
--------------------
sudo -u squeezeboxserver -g nogroup patch ... rest of patch line
--------------------
This will ensure that any new directories and files are created with the
correct user/group ownership, rather than being owned by the root user.
In the latter case, subsequent plugin uninstallation may fail because
LMS would not be able to purge any files owned by -root-.
