Proper way to patch a source for creating an rpm


Hey,

I'm trying to build an rpm for hdrmerge. The problem is that it's looking for alglib in a different place than Fedora puts it. If I edit [hdrmerge-source-dir]/cmake/FindAlglib.cmake to have Fedora's path, it finds it and the config step can finish. Since we're supposed to work from pristine sources - how do I make a patch that I can have the spec file find it in the right place and, therefore, compile some rpms?

Nevermind, it's late and I wasn't thinking straight. I found this on first google: http://wiki.networksecuritytoolkit.o...File_For_A_RPM
