[Asterisk-Users] Patching UK Caller ID

You need to run:
patch -p1 < ast-UK-and-DTMF-pol-CID.diff

You may need to change the -p1 to -p0 depending on the paths in the diff.

I don't think this patch applies cleanly with current CVS head - I know for
sure the 31-08 version does.

I'd be grateful for some help on this.  I've been following the various
e-mails on the UK CID issue, particularly the last posting in bug fix 9.  

It seems that all I need now is to apply ast-UK-and-DTMF-pol-CID.diff.

I apologise in advance for what is probably a very simple question, but how
do I apply this patch.

I've copied the file in to the directory containing the source files for
asterisk (which is /usr/src/asterisk) and then I've run:

patch ast-UK-and-DTMF-pol-CID.diff

Unfortunately nothing happens, just a blank line appears and no command line
prompt.

The other question I've got is the directory structure.  In the diff file
the location of the file is given as:  RCS file:
/usr/cvsroot/asterisk/callerid.c,v

I don't have a directory called /usr/cvsroot/.  I've installed Asterisk by
following the standard CVS install procedure.  Am I missing something
blindingly obvious or should I be RTFM (in which case, could someone point
me to the right manual!).

Even if I replace cvsroot with src I get the same no-activity/blank line.

I really would like to get UK caller ID working so I'd be grateful for any
pointers from those on the list who know a hellava lot more than I do.

Many thanks,
George

PS  I have looked at three linux manuals I've got at the patch command and
can't find anything obvious for me to follow.
