The patch fails and creates a Makefile.rej, which looks like nothing but a patch file to me. Is there any trick to using the .rej file?
No trick. The .rej file simply contains those parts of a patch that didn't apply. Read the manpage for patch as it explains in detail what the rejects are. To consistently get more readable .rej files I'd recommend passing --reject-format=unified to patch.
The patch applies correctly to everything but the simple Makefile and it has got me stalled. If anyone can help, please let me know. Then Makefile, Makefile.rej and gnomenu_64.patch are here:
One reason could be changes in white space. To check that, use the -l or --ignore-whitespace option. You really should have asked over in opensuse-programing as that's the place where questions like this belong.
