Apply patch to Electrum separately #5

Closed estevaocm closed 6 years ago

estevaocm commented 6 years ago

In the original Bitkey, Electrum received some discrete patches for operating automatically with a wallet in a predefined location in a USB drive. In the current version of this fork, due to hurry, this was applied directly to the source code tar, which is not good for transparency and perceived security. The Electrum package should be reverted to the exact official release and the patch applied as before.

TODO: Either learn to use the patch program or replace the file with the conf.d/electrum script.

Tested without patch, have seen no issues. Maybe the patch is obsolete.
