I got the other issue (when the patched file does not exists), but I fail to reproduce this one: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp# mkdir q [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp# mkdir patches [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp# touch patches/empty [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp# echo empty > patches/series [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp# quilt push Applying patch empty Patch empty appears to be empty; applied Now at patch empty [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp# (in an unstable chroot, this time, where I manage to reproduce dan's issue ;) Bye, Mt.
