11. Quick one-time patching of packages
If you want to patch a package once (for instance to test a patch provided through bugzilla), just start building the package, but
when the following is shown, interrupt it (Ctrl-Z):
>>> Source prepared.
Then go to the builddir (like /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/tor-0.2.4.22/work/tor-0.2.4.22) and apply the patch. Then continue the build
(with “fg” command).
