Dear list,

I was looking into trying out some local modifications to a cygwin
packaged program.  Thus I installed the sources via setup.exe then
copied /usr/src/* to a working directory and tried to rebuild the
package with the cygport all command.  But Even with different
packages and unchanged sources, cygport keeps failing with an error
that the first patch in the source will not apply.

What should I do to get to a buildable state?

Steps to reproduce (using bash as a simpler test example):

$ cd
$ mkdir cygsrc
$ cd cygsrc
$ cp -par /usr/src/* .
$ cd bash-5.2.21-1.src
$ cygport bash.cygport all
$ cygport --version

Results:

*** Info: Trying to enable case sensitivity on 
/home/jb.WISEMO/cygsrc/bash-5.2.21-1.src/bash-5.2.21-1.x86_64
 >>> Preparing bash-5.2.21-1.x86_64
 >>> Unpacking source bash-5.2.21.tar.gz
*** ERROR: patch bash-2.03-profile.patch will not apply
