Upstream package patches #337

We're currently building IFEM (https://github.com/OPM/IFEM). It suggests to install the GoTools dependency from the Ubuntu packages contained in this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~ifem/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages

However, the package there applies in total 12 patches on top of the code. Particularly patch 0006-added-install-config-mode-files.patch creates cmake files so that GoTools can be found from a shared libs installation. Is there a reason why these changes are not upstreamed into the repository here? As we're building for RHEL / CentOS / RockyLinux, we can't use the ppa debs directly. I attach that particular patch here for reference.
