I copied the patch into /home/tom/rh9-downloads/sane-backends-1.0.12/backend/avision.diff and executed [tom@localhost gnucashShadow]$ cd ~/rh9-downloads/sane-backends-1.0.12/backend [tom@localhost backend]$ patch -p0 < ./avision.diff can't find file to patch at input line 8 Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option? The text leading up to this was: -------------------------- |Index: avision.c |=================================================================== |RCS file: /cvsroot/external/sane/sane-backends/backend/avision.c,v |retrieving revision 1.21 |diff -u -r1.21 avision.c |--- avision.c 9 May 2003 01:36:20 -0000 1.21 |+++ avision.c 4 Jul 2003 22:29:44 -0000 -------------------------- File to patch: avision.c patching file avision.c patch: **** malformed patch at line 9: All the many other beta-tester and debug-log sender ;-) [tom@localhost backend]$ I have almost no experience with patch. What went wrong?
