I see. Nice explanation. Not fuzzy at all! :)
Sounds like we need a policy to deal with fuzziness. Having not thought
much about this, I'll wait to let Jake (and Steve??) chime in on this
one. Jake will make the final call of course, but it'd be nice if we can
recommend a way to reliably handle this sort of change (line numbers
shifting a tad) in the future. I expect something could be scripted, but
someone would need to write the script.

Hi Eric,
The way I see it, this happened:
Jake created the updated package using the same patch he had used for the
original 0.96 build. It is still valid, but the conf file to patch changed
slightly, so the patch hunks have some offset.
Now, for some reason, Fedora's build system enforces patch to run with fuzz=0,
which causes this to break.
All I did was expand the current clamav package, apply the patch without the
fuzzy option and created a new patch by using 'diff -Naur' just like the
original patch from Jake's package.
The only thing that changed is line numbers in the .patch file. The content is
otherwise identical.
So, yes, it is 100% compatible, it works for all distros and I guess
re-creating the patch in this way should always be done to keep these problems
from appearing. However, it does mean one or two more steps for the packager
and, unless you use a system that enforces fuzzy=0, you'd not ever notice it in
the first place.

Next question is, does it work with other distros? (Is it backwards
compatible?) Is there one setting that that works for all, or does this need to
be a per-distro setting?

OK,
Please give this one a try:

Cheers,
Yes this works.
