[SOLVED] DWM 6.1 - statuscolor patch and config.h changes

I`m installing dwm 6.1 from ABS.
When i try to patch it after a clean install with

cd src/dwm6.1
patch -p1 < statuscolor6.1.diff

It rejects everything.

I`ve tried manually replacing the - lines with the + ones but there are some inconsistencies in the patch like

-			drw_setscheme(drw, &scheme[SchemeNorm]);
+			drw_setscheme(drw, &scheme[0]);
 			drw_text(drw, x, 0, w, bh, NULL, 0);

While my dwm.c is

drw_setscheme(drw, &scheme[SchemeNorm]);
drw_rect(drw, x, 0, w, bh, 1, 0, 1);

I have previously patched 6.0 with no problem.

I have two questions:
1 - Will I have to wait for a new patch or am I doing something wrong?
2 - While using DWM 6.0 I usually made changes to the config.h at the root of the dir, but now it only take changes when I modify the config.h in src/dwm6.1 after running makepkg -efi. Did someone experienced something similar?

You'll have to wait until someone updates the patch: there have been significant changes to the codebase over the last several months.

Thank you Jason.
Any comments about the changes made to the config.h? They are only being applied if I change the config.h at src/dwm6.1

The prepare() function is skipped when source extraction is skipped.

That's correct.
Thank you for your time.
