Well OK, I got it from the patches mailing list but I presume it's the
same file ...

I've had problems a couple of times applying the pgnus patches (The
patches containing the MIME delimiters in particular)  I get something
like this

lee @ 09:56:59 : patch -p2 --verbose < ../patches/0.58-0.59
.

Hmm...  The next patch looks like a new-style context diff to me...
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|*** pub/pgnus/lisp/mml.el      Tue Dec  1 01:24:13 1998
|--- pgnus/lisp/mml.el  Wed Dec  2 01:56:41 1998
--------------------------
Patching file `lisp/mml.el' using Plan A...
Hunk #1 succeeded at 129.
Hunk #2 succeeded at 141.
patch: **** duplicate `---' at line 610; check line numbers at line 609


I'm presuming that my patch is getting confused about the fact that line
609 starts with --=  My question is, do I need to do something special
or am I being stupid ?

Lee.
PS.patch --version => 2.5
