Does anyone know why the startup script in pcmcia-cs is carried in

Do we have any guidelines about what should go into Source, and what should
go into into Patch?
Well, rc.pcmcia isn't a patch, its the actual script. So in that sense,
it shouldn't be in a Patch: line in the specfile because it never gets
applied anywhere, it just gets copied to where it needs to go during %
install. And it would be pretty silly to generate a patch with
"diff /dev/null rc.pcmcia" so that it _would_ be a Patch:.
