My original problem is that the image built in 1.6.1 does not build
in 1.7. Paul indicated this is probably because of the -foreign issue
as referred to in the reference manual Section 5.6.3 when upgrading.
What I need to do is modify my recipe to include this. I understand
once I have modified the recipe I can generate a patch against the
original.
However, I still cannot identify the original change to the recipe
required to add this item.
I have added to the recipe
EXTRA_OECONF = " 'AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([foreign]); "
Is this the correct change to the recipe to ensure the config.ac file
is updated so that any non-conformance with GNU guidelines is
overlooked?
I am still getting the original error error.
Do I need to add :do_config() {}and if so, what do I put in the
between the brackets? note that it looks like do_config is being run
already because that is what is generating the error

Yep, that's not really a valid patch file (at least not one that can
be
applied.

If you want to do it by hand, look at the "Creating patches with
diff"
section on http://jungels.net/articles/diff-patch-ten-minutes.html.
If you think you might need to add multiple patches, rework them
etc.
I'd recommend using git.
Cheers,
Anders
