How can I add a patch to an existing package?

I really want to add a patch to Archlinux klibc package.
http://git.debian.org/?p=kernel/klibc.g … 571d2c979d
http://repos.archlinux.org/viewvc.cgi/k … core-i686/
But the more I read about contributing, the more confusing it gets. Wiki first page would take me to AUR, but it looks like AUR is only for adding new packages. So I find out about ABS which is for creating a custom package, but what steps to take to get the changed package to replace the existing? And should I actually be doing it this way? Maybe there are tools to introduce git patches automatically? I really don't understand...
I realize this is a newbie problem, but the wiki organization is confusing to me, so if anyone would provide links to answer my questions I'd be very happy.

ABS is exactly how you want to do this.
* install and run abs as described in the wiki page
* copy the files in /var/abs/core/klibc to your build directory (I have a builds directory in my home directory)
* edit the PKGBUILD to add your patch (man PKGBUILD will help here)
* make the package with makepkg (there is a wiki page for makepkg)
* use pacman to install it:  pacman -U klibc-blahblah.pkg.tar.gz
The process is shockingly easy.  And the great thing is that, since you've installed the package with pacman, you can use pacman to remove it if you change your mind.  There is also a way to keep pacman from upgrading it when you do pacman -Syu (see pacman.conf).
The process is also described here:  http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ABS … he_ABS_way

  • How can i add a phone to my existing itunes account

    My husband's iPhone 5C will not turn on yet I am being instructed by Apple that I must deactivate it or be charged $900 for returning it  un-deactivated. It was never added to my itunes account, so I cannot deactivate it remotely unless I add it.  How can I add it, deactivate it and add the replacement phone?  Please help as I have a very limited amount of time (and hair) left to accomplish this or be charged another $900 by apple for not returning it in a timely manner.  Thanks.

    If it won't power on, there's nothing you can do. Are they asking you to remove it from Find My iPhone? If so, and it's not associated with any account, then there's nothing to remove/deactivate.

  • How can i add or create Layers into existing PDF File

    How can i create or add new Layers into new or existing PDF file using DLE JAVA API (Datalogics API)

    sandyrock,
    The PDFL, as Adobe distributes it, only has a C/C++ interface.
    The JNI APIs are developed and supported by Datalogics, the company you licensed your copy of the PDFL from. Have you contacted them? Support for their API extensions to the PDFL should be included with your licensing fee and they have many tips and ready-made examples specific to their API extensions they could give you.

  • How can I add a new background to existing photo?

    Hi folks!
    I got Adobe elemets 8 new and I was trying the whole day now to add a new background to an existing photo.
    There is one main photo showing a face of a man and I would like to cut that face out and plant it into another photo to use the background !
    OR leave the face as is  and upload a new photo to set it as a background.
    However I cannot find an upload function at all.
    Hope it makes sense what I am trying to describe here.
    Also - any answers in german language would be awesome (OR if english: please keep it simple). 
    Thanks a lot!!!

  • How Can You Add an Item to an Existing Delivery? (Function Module?)

    We are currently using function module GN_DELIVERY_CREATE to create deliveries (shipping notifications) from ASN data. 
    We're also using function module BAPI_INB_DELIVERY_CHANGE to change quantities on existing deliveries and to delete line items on existing deliveries.
    Does anyone know if there's a function module to add a new line item to an existing delivery?
    Best Regards, Scott

    Is BAPI_DELIVERYPROCESSING_EXEC what you need?

    How can I add an episode to an existing web page using iWeb?
    I could probably figure this out but I am afraid if I make changes to the site and re-upload it to the podcast area I will have just doubled it. I see them repeated from time to time.

    Hi apple-owner,
    Method 1.
    To create this scatter-plot, I selected the whole of Columns A and B. (Shift click on the Column reference tabs).
    The plot ignores blank rows, but they are "ready" for new data:
    Method 2
    If you did not select whole columns, you can extend the "active" rows. Rows 1-5 selected:
    Add more data rows and drag the fill handle (small white circle, bottom right) down

  • How can i add an custom attribute and assign it to an existing custom object class in sun ds

    I need to add an attribute to sun ds schema and assign it to an existing custom object class.
    I know how to add an attribute but how can i add the attribute to an existing custom object class.
    Please help.
    Thanks

    The objectclasses attribute is multi-valued, so you can add several values to it as long as they are unique.
    For instance, I think you can add several declaration of the same objectclass as below (note the difference is the number of spaces in the value) howewer, from a schema perspective, only 1 will be taken into account:
    objectclasses: ( 2.5.6.6 NAME 'person' DESC 'Standard LDAP objectclass' SUP top MUST ( sn $ cn ) MAY ( description $ seeAlso $ telephoneNumber $ userPassword $ CustomAttr) X-ORIGIN 'RFC 2256' )
    objectclasses: ( 2.5.6.6 NAME   'person' DESC 'Standard LDAP objectclass' SUP top MUST ( sn $ cn ) MAY ( description $ seeAlso $ telephoneNumber $ userPassword $ CustomAttr) X-ORIGIN 'RFC 2256    ' )
    That's the reason why it is safe to delete previous value if you want to update an existing objectclass. No problem to add a new objectclass (new oid and new name) to the schema.

  • How do I add a WRT310N to my existing BEFSR81 network without getting IP conflicts?

    How can I add a WRT310N to my existing BEFSR81 wired network without IP conflicts? I have used the setup disk that came with the WRT310 and everything seem to work correctly. The I noticed my wired printer had a IP address conflict and my laptop would connect wirelessly. I have tried to use the "cascading a linksys routher to another linksys router" but the WRT310 does not have the same web access as described. Any help would be appreciated.

    You can cascade both the router together via an Ethernet cable.However you can not use the CD for one router to setup another router.Check this link for cascading two router.

  • How can i add STORAGE LOCATION field which is not...............

    hi,
    sap gurus,
    good morning to all,
    how can i add STORAGE LOCATION field which is not in the standard tables namely
    KOMP, KOMK, and KOMG.
    how to include it in our FIELDS FROM FIELD CATALOGUE.
    if we include this field is there any impact on the standard tables.
    plz let me know this.
    bcz
    we are selling our products in two ways
    (1). one is straight from factory ie direct sales from factory
    if customer asks for excise invoice then we will sell thru factory and keeping freight in mind we will
    deliver him which ever is economical either rail or road.
    before coming to second case of selling the goods
    we will do STOCK TRANSPORT ORDER from plant to different storage locations.
    if we did STO thru road we have to sell the goods thru road only.
    if we did STO thru rail we have to sell the goods thru rail route only.
    (2). if the customer is not asking any excise invoice then we will send the goods thru depo/storage
    location which is not registered under excise.
    if the goods came by road then it will be delivered by road only.
    if the goods came by rail then it will be delivered by rail only.
    my logic here is
    basing on the
    storage location, transportation types, and distance i want to create condition record
    that captures exact frieght at the sales order level.
    confirm whether i am right or wrong.
    regards,

    Hi,
    It is not recommended to add new fields to any SAP standard tables. It disturbs the whole SAP functionality.
    But if you have no choice expcept to change the standard tables to meet your requirement -  then you need an access key to modify the object, which is available from the market place.
    Nevertheless, the better option is to create a 'Z' table with the required fields and use that accordingly.
    Changing standard tables will have serious impact when you apply patches or do an upgrade on the existing functionality.
    REWARD POINTS IF HELPFUL

  • How can i add filename on a document in pages 5.1 ?

    I am allways using a template to make documents, that I save under different names. How can I add the (changed) filename in the footer of a saved document ?
    It is important to me to print the filename on document, to find and edit it on my mac later.
    In MS Word it is easy to automaticaly add filenames, path, author and other filedata to the document. I can't find how to do that automatically in Pages templates.
    I saw earlyer answers to this question on this community, but they don't work as I expect, or only on earlier versions of pages.....  I trust there is an easy way to do this.
    Can someone help me please ?

    That function, present in "Pages 09" (i.e. Pages 4.3) , was not included in Pages 5.0-5.1.  (Nor were nearly 100 other such features, from mail merge and bookmarks to non-contiguous text selection, 2-up page viewing and the ability to set alternating left/right margins, headers & footers.Version 5.1 is also notably buggy. One work around, or partial work around, is to click the file name at the top of the window document. You can then select the filename, copy it  and paste it whereever you like. As far as I can see, however, there is no way to include the path: all you get is the filename and extension.
