[solved]DWM apply systray patch

[solved]I am trying to appply the systray6.1 patch to dwm. The "patch" goes fine but when I make I get the below errors:

dwm build options:
CFLAGS = -std=c99 -pedantic -Wall -Wno-deprecated-declarations -Os -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/include/freetype2 -D_DEFAULT_SOURCE -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=2 -DVERSION="6.1" -DXINERAMA

I haven't applied any other patches. Any idea what I am doing wrong? I can go into dwm.c and see the lines the error is refering to but I am not sure what the problem is.
Thanks

Are you using version 6.1 of DWM?

AFAIK that version isn't in the repositories or ABS.

There are quite a few changes with the latest git pull so the systray6.1 patch may not be compatible with older versions.

Please use code tags when pasting to the boards: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fo … s_and_code

As HoaS notes, the current head reintroduced XFT font support and that patch has obviously been updated.

I just got the latest one off of the repo at git.suckless.org/dwm. the page says 6.0 but my config.mk says version 6.1. I did try the 6.0 version but the patch had errors. I am a little confused. The other patches come back with errors too. I am using an unpatched version at the moment so I would think most patches should work.
What should I do?

Most of the patches labelled 6.{0,1} should apply against the dwm in the repos (ABS version).

The re-introduction of XFT only happened a fortnight ago so very few patches will have been updated for that.

[solved] once I got the 6.0 version and applied the 6.0 patch everything worked. Thank you for your help.
