Well, I guess, Stephan knows very well, what the fuzz is about: it's about hundreds of patches, which will have to be regenerated, done as an employment-creation measure for this lazy gang of packagers.
And here comes the the question: And how do I create a correct patch ? I used to do "diff -ruN dir-orig dir"
Is that OK ?
Sure, the problem only occurs, if the files had changes *after* the patch was created. patch is tolerant about those changes to a certain degree (see man patch, option -F), while rpm by policy doesn't inherit this tolerance anymore.
