Applying patches (was Testing GNUMail under Linux/Gentoo)

[Catherine Luedecker]

Oh it is me again, I am having trouble applying the patch to by 
gnustep-back using the link found below. 

the command I used was patch -p0 < gnustep-back-art-freetype213-0.8.5.patch
but I get an error. 


patch -p0 < /home/catherine/gnustep-back-art-freetype213-0.8.5.patch
can't find file to patch at input line 4
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:
