DescriptionThe P4DTI for Bugzilla needs to apply a patch to Bugzilla using the program "patch". This program is provided as standard on Unix and Linux, but not on Windows. In the AG, section 3.4.1 "Software Prerequisites", we say that "patch" is required and provide a link to an implementation of "patch" for Windows. However, this information is not included in section 5.4.1, "Patching Bugzilla", which a user installing the P4DTI will be reading when "patch" is actually required.
AnalysisAdd link back to section 3.4.1 from section 5.4.1.
