[Abcde-users] Newbie asking for help - Patching abcde

[Edward Petrie-Smith]

Hi Roger,

Thanks for your help, but when I run the command I get the following error:

user at localhost:~/Downloads$ cd /usr/bin/ && patch --dry-run < ~/Downloads/0005-Embed-album-art-in-Flac-and-Ogg.patch 
patching file abcde
Hunk #1 FAILED at 984.
Hunk #2 succeeded at 888 (offset -173 lines).
Hunk #3 succeeded at 919 (offset -173 lines).
Hunk #4 succeeded at 946 (offset -173 lines).
Hunk #5 FAILED at 3251.
2 out of 5 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file abcde.rej

 

I’ve never had a failure before, so not sure how to resolve this. Is it a case of manually patching the hunks that have failed?

This was run on 2.5.4. 

Edward.

You likely manually patched the installed bin (script) file by hand as root.

(The installed /usr/bin/abcde file is a simple bash script file. ;-)

ie. cd /usr/bin/ && patch --dry-run < /home/edward/my_mp3.patch
