(bsd)patch vs ports

2013-11-27 Thread Andriy Gapon
When building ports on head I sometimes see messages like the following during a
patch phase:

===  Applying FreeBSD patches for firefox-25.0_1,1
No such line 262 in input file, ignoring
===  Applying NSS patches
No such line 194 in input file, ignoring
No such line 658 in input file, ignoring
No such line 52 in input file, ignoring
No such line 45 in input file, ignoring

Is this a cause for concern?
Do those messages mean that potentially important patches are not actually 
applied?

Well.. If it compiles, then no, those patches were probably not 
important.  Security fixes are usually done upstream by the vendor.

Honestly, it appears that someone left old patch files, and those 
patches may no longer be needed for firefox to compile on FreeBSD.
