Yes. > However the bash-5.0 set of 18 patches I could not find all of the patch pa= rts in the tarball files. Doing the build caused several hunks to fail becaus= e a match could not be found. Some matched because the changes were now incor= porated. These will all be upstreamed. Instead of releasing a tarball for a minor rele= ase, GNU bash only releases the patches. So instead of 5.0.1 you would have o= ne patch to download and another one for 5.0.2, and so on. We appear to be on= 5.0.18 then. > Reviewing the first patch there were several of the lines from the previous= version that are no longer in the newer tarball files. You can just drop them and download the latest set for the 5.1 branch: https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bash/bash-5.1-patches/ > However I am unable to tell if this is because the changes are now incorpor= ated in the tarball files but in a different way to the patch or if they are = missing and a new set of patches is required to implement the same changes. Ideally =E2=80=9Cpatch=E2=80=9D should tell you that the patch has already be= en applied. If it had to be modified during the backport, it might not be abl= e to detect this. > This update needs someone else to work on it with better skills than mine. Just drop the patches and keep the other ones :) -Michael > Regards, >=20 > Adolf. >=20 > On 28/03/2021 10:33, Adolf Belka wrote: >> Hi All, >>=20 >>=20 >> For info I am working on the following update patches:- >>=20 >> bash >> binutils >> bison >> bzip2 >> diffutils >> ed >> gawk >> lm_sensors >> perl >>=20 >> Regards, >>=20 >> Adolf >>=20 > --=20 > Sent from my laptop >=20 --===============8485368401755335064==--
