No patch command ??
 

I have inatalled Mandrake 9, but when I type command command:
patch -p0 < ......

System displays:
bash: patch: command not found

I think that 'patch' command is a basic command and it
is installed with system.

How can I install patch command on my system?

thank you for your any advice in advance.

I had a look at my RH system and there are 2 rpms called patch-2.5.4-12 and patchutils-0.2.11-2. Mandrake is simular to RH so look in the rpm directory on the install cds and see if any files like this exist then install them.

Check to see if they are already installed (assuming mandrake rpm works like the RH one) try rpm -qa | grep patch. This is what I tried.
