I used patch < ... instead of git am
2- Using also the second patch and moving the result
(libavc1394-0.5.4.patch1 and libavc1394-0.5.4.patch2) to
.../thirdparty/src, the compilation is still successful. I couldn't
tell the differences.
3- Using only the first patch with "git am" the compilation is
successful. In this case I put the patch in .../cinelerra-5.1, without
entering /thirdparty and without moving the result of the patch to
/thirdparty/src. I can't tell if there are any differences with the
other builds.
oh, very cool, I was afraid i broke build too hard for even fixing (once in time I tried autoreconf on kde3 sources.. it failed in mysterious for me ways!)
still, because I suspect more of such patches will be needed for new-ish architectures (ppc64le, aarch64, e2k..) this specific patch might go in or wait depending on Phyllis feelings as de-facto our release engineer (most periodic-release softwares tend to have feature/code freeze just before release)
