I am trying to port one package from Ubuntu. But is seems that they incorporated all the package in one huge diff file. The diff does not change any files, it introduces many new files, both binary and textual. There are no other files in the package.
So I wonder how can I extract this package from this diff? I tried just "patch diffname.diff" in an empty directory in hope this would create all the files described in the diff but it seems this technique does not work: the patch utility simply hangs or goes into infinite loop with no response and no activity.
It is either a quilt patchset or a dpatch, see debian/patches directory for clue.
There is no debian directory. The whole package is one huge diff file. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
