first of all i want to thank Andreas for reporting this issue, because i
tried about everything to get to the bottom of the problem :-\
POSIXLY_CORRECT is at least triggering the error:
% echo $POSIXLY_CORRECT
1
% tar -xjf linux-2.6.14.tar.bz2
% cd linux-2.6.14
% bzip2 -dc ../patch-2.6.15-rc1.bz2 | patch -p1 -s --dry-run
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|diff --git a/Documentation/DocBook/rapidio.tmpl
b/Documentation/DocBook/rapidio.tmpl
|new file mode 100644
|index 0000000..1becf27
|--- /dev/null
|+++ b/Documentation/DocBook/rapidio.tmpl
--------------------------
File to patch:
i need to do "unset POSIXLY_CORRECT" to apply the patch cleanly.
i am using patch-2.5.9-2 (i386, amd64)
thanks,
Christian.
