no no, you put the epatch command in your ebuild file (your own version
that you put in PORTAGE_OVERLAY.) Then the patch gets applied to the

Ah... Already did that! In my modified ebuild what i did was to

The probelm here is (likely) that the name of the package (for the
purposes of the ebuild) is 'mutt-conan', not mutt.
The format for an overlay folder (like Portage) is

I suppose there's no way to avoid there being *some* issue-- this way,
you have to actively watch Portage to see if today is perhaps the
Hi all,
I find a cute patch to mutt and to use it i modified the ebuild and
the pertinent files so now re-emerging mutt builds mutt with this
patch. Later i fixed the actual version of mutt so an upgrade cannot

2. Fernando might like to note that the way to introduce a patch to a
package (rather than an amendment to the ebuild) is to use the epatch
command. Commonly the line looks like this:
