5 I suggested putting the package name, version, arch, patch # in the
6 filename of every patch. Because epatch isn't going to work with the
7 current scheme (##-arch-foo.patch) if all the patches for every package
8 are in a single directory. If I'm understanding the patches.gentoo.org
9 thing correctly, and also how epatch works.
