Hi,

### Forwarded to openembedded-devel ###

We are using Fedora14. That is using patch 2.6.1-8.

The -8 release includes the following patches to patch.
Patch1: patch-2.5.4-sigsegv.patch
Patch2: patch-get-arg.patch
Patch3: patch-CVE-2010-4651.patch
Patch100: patch-selinux.patch

I think one of those fixes a security issue in patch where ".." in
path names were allowed. With this version of patch (which I assume
will become standard ?) the OpenEmbedded fails.
Any ideas on a way to get around this (ideally without using a
different patch version :) )

So, there's a lot of recipes with patches with .. in the path:
openembedded$ git grep -lE "^---.*[^.]\.\.\/" recipes/ | wc -l
80

Some of these will be easy fixups (first one I peeked at we can just
change the patch and not have to modify the recipe) but others like the
tcl one will require a little thought.

Everything should be happy now.
