Mentioning the error(s) would be helpful.

If it complains about not being able to find the file to patch, then try

Code:
patch -p0 < diffs-230419.txt
But svn and the tarball download have both been updated, so if you pull the latest from svn or download the latest tarball, then there's no need to patch. If you're getting
"Patch already applied, do you want to reverse it?" (or whatever the exact message is) then you're probably trying to patch an up-to-date version.
