Description Manuel Nickschas 2014-01-22 20:21:57 UTC
Hi,

I need to apply a small patch to dbus on several boxen at work, specifically for using http://projects.genivi.org/commonapi/. The patch in question is hosted at http://git.projects.genivi.org/?p=ipc/common-api-dbus-runtime.git;a=blob;f=dbus-DBusMessage-add-support-for-custom-marshaling.patch

However, I don't think it's upstreamable (or it would be upstream by now), so I'd like to use the epatch_user mechanism to apply it locally without it getting out of sync with new upstream versions of dbus.

Thus, it would be awesome if you could add epatch_user support to the dbus ebuilds.

Thanks!
~ Sput

Reproducible: Always
