[amsat-bb] Can't Control IC-910 Using Gpredict/Hamlib On Raspberry Pi

[B J]

I recently installed Gpredict and Hamlib on my Raspberry Pi which runs
Raspbian.  I'm unable to control my IC-910 because of a known bug.

I'd like to rebuild them from source code and I've located a patch.  The
thing is that the patch is a directory, not a single file.  I don't
normally work with Linux and I have no idea how to apply that patch
directory to the original code.

Does anyone know how to go about it?

I could try the brute-force method by physically adding or exchanging the
patch files, but I don't think that's a good idea.  I've found some
information on doing something like that using the commands "diff" and
"patch" but, when I tried those methods, I must have done something wrong
as I get some rather cryptic responses.

Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
