patch

[Ernst Schroff]

Hello,

I found some strange behaviour in the patch utility:

| $ patch /usr/local/bin/run < patch
| patching file /usr/local/bin/run
| patch: **** Can't remove file /usr/local/bin/run : Keine Berechtigung

That is because the programmer has write access to some files 
in /usr/local/bin, but not to the directory.

So I have to convert my patches to ed-scripts, or apply them as
root, but doing it with patch would be more comfortable.

        regards,
        E.
