oe uses version 0.2.31 of patchutils. i consider this a developers packages.
thats what is at the download location right now:
[ ] patchutils-0.2.31.tar.bz2 13-Jun-2005 17:46 143K
[ ] patchutils-0.3.0.tar.bz2 02-Jul-2008 12:07 146K
[ ] patchutils-0.3.1.tar.bz2 23-Jan-2009 18:06 155K
i was having noticeable trouble with those 5 years old version
since i am fiddling around with a relatively recent automake.
all the build behavior of patchutils was quite erratic.
staring and dealing the source package internals i reasoned
that those old version is probably not that automake compliant.
so i once took the probably most simple choice to solve it:
cp patchutils_0.2.31.bb patchutils_0.3.1.bb
that seemingly made me succeed with that recipes family.
regards, Alex.
