| The aumix package (2.7-19 and higher) handles this quite nicely.
|
| It first put the patches in a make variable:
|
| PATCHES:=$(shell cd debian/diffs && ls *.patch)
| REVPATCHES:=$(strip $(shell A=; for i in $(PATCHES); do A="$$i $$A"; done; \
| echo $$A))
|
| The REVPATCHES variable contains the patches in reverse sequence, which

[...]
And this works properly when some of the patches fail to apply? And
you will have to run debclean before removing or changing a patch,
right?
