2. patching the sources in the folder squid-2.5.STABLE10 with the following command: patch -p1 < ../ssl-2_5.patch
After this you need to run the bootstrap.sh script to prepare the source tree. Note that you need to have the exact versions of autoconf & automake the bootstrap.sh script wants, if it warns you about not finding the expected versions it most likely won't work.
this applies to most patches from devel.squid-cache.org. Regards Henrik
