It's related to the smime plugin, because that edits a Makefile.am!
Now that the smime plugin is in CVS, we should be able to go
completely patch-free! Woot!
To answer your second question: The patch file itself contains
instructions:
$ aclocal -I m4 && libtoolize --force --copy && autoheader && automake --add-missing --foreign --copy && autoconf
$ rm -fR autom4te.cache
$ cd ..
$ diff -rupN claws-{orig,-new}
The first line is something I made up myself: It should be whatever
you use in the project to regenerate the files. I don't even remember
where I got it from.
Thanks,
Marcus
