I am try to upgrage my xfree that came out off the box with redhat 7.1
the intructions below tell me how and i got them from the Read me file at
xfree.org, however it says tward the bottom of the first parragaph(see below)
that the patches should be applied to a clean 4.0.2 source tree and that the
working directory cantains the xc/ directory
ok my questions is were is the xc/ directory i search for like half an hour
last night till i finally gave up. Could someone please help i sure if anyone
has very much experiance with linux this should be a easy question. Is there
some way to find the xc/ directoy
phillip
A source patch relative to version 4.0.2 is also available. Because of its
size, it is split into four parts. The patch files are 4.0.2-4.1.0.diff1.gz,
4.0.2-4.1.0.diff2.gz, 4.0.2-4.1.0.diff3.gz and 4.0.2-4.1.0.diff4.gz. There
is also a tarball that contains some files that have components that can't be
included in a diff. It is 4.1.0.tgz. These patches should be applied to a
clean 4.0.2 source tree, working from the directory containing the xc/ direc-
tory. The patches should be applied by running:
gzip -d < 4.0.2-4.1.0.diff1.gz | patch -p0 -E
gzip -d < 4.0.2-4.1.0.diff2.gz | patch -p0 -E
gzip -d < 4.0.2-4.1.0.diff3.gz | patch -p0 -E
gzip -d < 4.0.2-4.1.0.diff4.gz | patch -p0 -E
rm -f xc/programs/xieperf/images/image.012
rm -fr xc/fonts/bdf/latin2
rm -fr xc/fonts/bdf/100dpi
rm -fr xc/fonts/bdf/75dpi
gzip -d < 4.1.0.tgz | tar vxf -
Patches might also be available relative to 4.0.3. If so, the instructions
for applying them are the same, except that you should start with a clean
4.0.3 source tree.
