You have indeed. However the HOWTO is wrong!

Where it says:

   # Make a patch file containing your changes:

   diff -ruN BUILD/e-smith-pkg-0.3-{3,4} > \
       SOURCES/e-smith-pkgs.fixes.20000815001

it should say:

   # Make a patch file containing your changes:

   cd BUILD
   diff -ruN e-smith-pkg-0.3-{3,4} > \
       SOURCES/e-smith-pkgs.fixes.20000815001

Another way to fix the problem is to use "-p2" on your patch line, rather 
than "-p1" as we have at present.

I guess this documentation isn't being used very widely :-)

This is exactly what we have done in 5.5.
