Description jan kuipers 2004-01-18 03:39:28 UTC
/usr/src/linux/patches.txt does not list the entire contents of the (hugeish) patch file. At least the 'systrace' patch is not mentioned.

Would it be possible to 
1) list all applied patches in the (big) patchfile
2) give a location of all partial patches (dev.gentoo.org/~iggy/ does not have systrace/keventd fi.)
3) use partial patches (through addpatches like in gentoo-sources-2.4.20) 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

as part of new processess we will try harder to document patchsets.
hope this helps.
