Perhaps, but it is not clear if the original guy will be
happy:-( Especially if he does not agree with the patching....

Thanks, how does one create a local repo? What is special about it?
(Putting the file part, I can understand). But what makes for a local
repo?

How does it know the F package should be overridden? Because of the
version number? If not, should I call the rpm/program something else?
Such as fvwm-patched? 

Many thanks again!
