2) In the case above, the third party patch file is written to be applied from the directory above the source code (I think this would be called the work directory) and not from inside the dynamips-0.2.7 directory created when the tarball is extracted. The best I can figure is that the patching phase does apply the patch while in this source directory (dynamips-0.2.7) and not from the work directory. It is possible to make it apply the patch from the work directory so that I do not have to modify the third party patch file for this variant?
you could either modify the patch-directory via 'patch.dir ${worksrcpath}/foo/bar/' or just create a new patch via diffing the original and the patches sources from the base dir;
There is also the possibility to use: patch.pre_args -p1 But I think this would apply to all patchfiles. Rainer
