[Bug 953857] [NEW] edit-patch.sh looks for edit-patch which make it fail to run a subshell

[Francisco Javier P.L.]

Public bug reported:

Release of Ubuntu: precise
Package Version: 2.11.4ubuntu1
Expected Results: edit-patch should run a subshell to introduce changes
Actual Results: edit-patch fail with the following message:

$ edit-patch.sh  99-new-fix
Normalizing patch path to  99-new-fix
Normalizing patch name to 99-new-fix.patch
grep: debian/patches/99-new-fix.patch: No such file or directory
head: cannot open `debian/patches/99-new-fix.patch' for reading: No such file or directory
sed: can't read debian/patches/99-new-fix.patch: No such file or directory

This happen because at the line ~193:

    if [ "$(basename $0)" = "edit-patch" ]; then
        edit_patch_$PATCHSYSTEM $PATCHNAME
    elif [ "$(basename $0)" = "add-patch" ]; then
        add_patch_$PATCHSYSTEM $1 $PATCHNAME

Compares against "edit-patch" instead of "edit-patch.sh"
