I am trying to apply these patches without success, which is probably
because I am doing it wrong, any guidance please?

I am on Fedora 16 and have located the target perl file (I think) as

,----
| /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Finance/Quote.pm  
`----

I try to apply the patch by doing 

,----
| patch /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Finance/Quote.pm -i currency2.diff -o Quote.pm
`----

This results in 

,----
| patching file /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Finance/Quote.pm
| Hunk #1 FAILED at 300.
| 1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file Quote.pm.rej
`----

The reject file is attached.

(The same happens for both patches so I am surely doing something wrong here)

Thanks,

Johnny
