Hello Tristan, I've assigned this bug to you, because you are listed as a
maintainer of lbzip2:

# osc maintainer -e lbzip2
Defined in package: Archiving/lbzip2 
  bugowner of lbzip2 : 
   -

  maintainer of lbzip2 : 
   psychonaut@nothingisreal.com


If this is not true, then feel free to reassign it to the responsible person
and reset your maintainership. Thanks!

This is probably a typo here. The current version we have both in Leap and
Tumbleweed is 2.5, not 2.25. However, it really seems that the patch can't be
applied as is and it needs some adjustments anyway. I would let it up to
maintainers if they want to wait for the new version 2.6 or if they decide to
backport this patch.
