What is the procedure for patching code?
Should I keep patches local to our RPM, our send them to the author and
get a new release of the core package?
In the short term it is easier to just patch our Extras package and
rebuild into the repository, but be sure you also try to get the patches
into upstream, so *somebody else* maintains it in the long term instead
of you.
What do you mean by "core package"? Is this Core or Extras?
If it is core, prep a SRPM for me, post it and assign the bug to me and
I'll apply to Core CVS and build.
