when compiled in, patch tries to preserve file attributes, for example: $ echo a > f $ setfattr -n user.name -v value f $ cat > ab.diff --- f +++ f @@ -1 +1 @@ -a +b ^D $ patch f < ab.diff $ getfattr -d f # file: f user.name="value" I assume you get the error message with and without --verbose. What does strace show in your case? Andreas
