HOW-TO Apply a patch to your ports ---------------------------------- These patches have been created against a current and, or latest ports tree, so please *do update* your ports tree either with csup(1), cvsup(1) and, or portsnap(8), before you apply these patches to your ports collection; Kindly refer the FreeBSD Handbook for further details. After downloading the requisite .patch.gz file(s), all you need to apply such a gzipped patch is execute the following as root: # zcat .patch.gz |patch -d/ -p1 That's all, and you have done it!

//.orig files, execute the following command as root: # find /usr/ports/
