Description Georg Schild 2004-08-07 00:25:45 UTC 
I have installed synaptics-0.13.3 and when upgrading to 0.13.4 emerge fails when it wants to patch the package for amd64. The patch needed cannot be found in /portage/x11-misc/synaptics/files/synaptics-0.13.4-amd64.patch. My $PORTDIR is set to /portage with all the subdirectories like tmp, distfiles etc.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge synaptics
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Here the exact output from emerge synaptics:

$ emerge synaptics

!!! ERROR: x11-misc/synaptics-0.13.4 failed.

Expected Results:  
correctly install / get patched

I am using an Acer Aspire 1501Lmi with the development-sources 2.6.8-rc2.
Installation is native amd64 without any emulation yet. X-Server is Xorg.
