• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Portage Development

[Description dan zhou 2005-05-03 00:02:36 UTC]

When I try to emerge gtk+2.6.7, I get a message saying gtk+-2.6-smoothscroll-r5.patch has "unrecognize format" and is ignored. 
I removed the file from my distfiles folder and downloaded it again. Still the same.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge gtk+


Actual Results:  
the patch has no effect.

Expected Results:  
the patch should be applied.

It's a completely harmless warning. this is what we get from showing debug info to users.

You claim it is 'ignored' yet it clearly shows :
* Applying gtk+-2.6-smoothscroll-r5.patch ...                            [  ok ]

This is not a bug.
