Re: [PATCH] functions.pl: Fix Bug13842 - Add resolvedeps to pakfire Usage:.

[stephen@firemypi.org]

Hello,

I did some work on the Usage: text for pakfire to clean it up. Thanks 
Jon for your input.  The revision is below.

Should I submit this as a new patch or as one that overrides the 
previous bugfix patch?  If it's preferable to do an overriding patch, I 
don't know how to do that so would need some guidance there.

Regards,
Stephen
