Full Discussion: Applying patch for Samba version 4.1.17
Operating Systems Linux Debian Applying patch for Samba version 4.1.17 Post 303000859 by anaigini45 on Friday 21st of July 2017 05:58:26 AM

I just did some research on how patches are applied in Debian, and they suggest downloading the main package; in this case it is "Samba".
Then cd into the downloaded directory, and run

Code:
# ls debian/patches

to see all available patches. This is because to install a new patch like what I want, then all the other patches have to be installed also. However, when I do the same, there is no "debian/patches" folder in the Samba directory.

Does this mean that there are no other patches for Samba, and I can just go ahead and install the patch above?

NAME

       diff2patches - Extract non-debian/ patches from .diff.gz files

SYNTAX

       diff2patches filename
       diff2patches --help|--version

DESCRIPTION

       Extracts  patches  from  .diff.gz  which  apply to files outside the "debian/" directory scope.  A patch is created for each modified file.
       Each patch is named according to the path of the modified file, with "/" replaced by "___", and an extension of ".patch".

OPTIONS

       filename
           Extract patches from filename which apply outside the "debian/" directory.

       --help
           Output help information and exit.

       --version
           Output version information and exit.

FILES

       debian/control
              Existence of this file is tested before any patch is extracted.

       debian/
       debian/patches/
              Patches are extracted to one of these directories.  "debian/patches/" is preferred, if it exists.  If DEB_PATCHES is present in  the
              environment, it will override this behavior (see "ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES" section below).

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       DEB_PATCHES
              When  defined  and  points  to  an  existing  directory,  patches  are  extracted  in  that  directory  and  not under "debian/" nor
              "debian/patches/".
