[solved] how to apply a wine patch?

I was hoping wine developers will fix the AcceptEx bug before the code freeze, but now I realize I'll have to patch it by myself...

There is a working patch for the bug, but I have no idea how to apply it...

Can anyone explain the process to me?

Install abs (check the wiki for more info), copy the PKGBUILD from your local abs-tree to some new directory. Download the patch to the same directory. Then remove the a/ and b/ at line 3 and 4 of the patch and add someting like

patch -p0 <../../patch

To the PKGBUILD after cd'ing into the source dir. Then

makepkg -c

and you should be done.

EDIT: ok I see why x)

Yes, you're right. I should have thought twice.
