eggdrop1.6.13+ipv6.patch problem.

[ghostaq]

Hey,

I'm all new to this eggdrop stuff so i might be asking a stupid question here.. But im stuck installing the ipv6 for eggdrop1.6.13.

I did the following thing (as can be read at Setting up a eggdrop):

tar zxvf eggdrop1.6.13.tar.gz
cd eggdrop1.6.13
./configure

And then
patch -p1 < eggdrop1.6.13+ipv6.patch.gz

But then i get this:
patch unexpectedly ends in middle of line
patch: **** Only garbage was found in the patch input.

How do i solve this?
Thanks for you time!

Grtz

From looking at the files it alters, you will need to import tha patch, before running the ./configure command.

So i have to do this:
tar zxvf eggdrop1.6.13.tar.gz
cd eggdrop1.6.13

patch -p1 < eggdrop1.6.13+ipv6.patch.gz

And then go on with the normal install.
./configure
etc..

Ill try that, thanks

EDIT:
Same thing after: tar zxvf eggdrop1.6.13.tar.gz / cd eggdrop1.6.13 :

ghostaq@box:~/eggdrop1.6.13$ ls

EEK, my bad.

I only spotted one of 2 issues.

The second issue, is that the patch is still compressed.

To conserve web-space, Slennox has compressed all files in the Tcl arhchive. As such, they are Either single files compressed, or Tar balls compressed.

Simple type "gunzip <file>"

This will uncompress it, and remove the .gx off the end. You can now use the "patch" command on this file.

Thank you, it works
Didn't notice the gz :/
