Morning,

Yesterday, as I was trying to upgrade Qt, following the BLFS dev book, I ra=
n=20
into the following error while attempting to apply the openssl-4.0 patch:

>can't find file to patch at input line 28
>Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
>The text leading up to this was:

It seems the filepaths for the patch file are slightly off.=20
It seems for all diffs in the patch,
>a/src/........ and b/src/........=20
should be replaced with=20
>a/qtbase/src/..... and b/qtbase/src/..........

Luckily, patch does explicitly ask you for the file location, which can be=
=20
entered manually for all 8 diffs, and it still allows the build to succeed;=
 or=20
the user can cd into the qtbase directory and adjust the patch file's relat=
ive=20
filepath accordingly. I figured I'd share my experience with the mailing li=
st in=20
case someone else runs into the error.

Thanks,
Sicarine
