Make /usr/share/mypaint your working dir, and put the patch file there (you seem to have managed this, but added for completeness):
cd /usr/share/mypaint sudo wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/44711925/0001-Check-for-and-handle-infinite-pressure.patch Do the actual patching: sudo patch -p1 < 0001-Check-for-and-handle-infinite-pressure.patch The -p1 is necessary option to strip the first directory of the file paths. If you look at the patch file, you'll see things like "diff --git a/gui/tileddrawwidget.py b/gui/tileddrawwidget.py". The a/ and b/ is what needs to be stripped, because you have gui/* in your working dir when you do the patching. -- MyPaint freezes upon start because input device reports infinite pressure https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/565664 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
