Hi ports@, Sorry for this silly question. I'm trying to generate a diff file for an upcoming x11/lxqt update. But if I use "cvs diff > file.diff" and then try to apply it with "patch < file.diff" the new directories (*/patches) are not generated and the files just... drop in the working directory. (why?) The problem goes away if I create the "patches" directories manually. Is there a secret flag on cvs diff or patch to generate those directories ? I tried looking in man cvs, rcsdiff and patch but I didn't find an answer. And my almost zero experience with cvs is not making this easier. :) Cheers. Elias mariani@
