Some stats (that's HEAD):

[mmazur at klapek SPECS]$ ls |grep spec$|wc -l
13023
[mmazur at klapek SPECS]$ grep ^Patch -r .|wc -l
11841
[mmazur at klapek SPECS]$ egrep '^%patch|:%patch' -r .|wc -l
11470
[mmazur at klapek SPECS]$ grep -c ^Patch -r .|grep -c ':0$'
8226

This means 37% of our spec files are patched with each of those speces having 
almost 1.5 patch on average.

And now the same stats but only for packages that are currently found in 3.0 
(both in main and in ready/test/updates/whatever; note the list isn't 
perfect).

[mmazur at klapek THSPECS]$ ls *.spec|wc -l
5761
[mmazur at klapek THSPECS]$ grep ^Patch -r .|wc -l
5600
[mmazur at klapek THSPECS]$ egrep '^%patch|:%patch' -r .|wc -l
5445
[mmazur at klapek THSPECS]$ grep -c ^Patch -r .|grep -c ':0$'
3856

This means that Th contains ~45% of potential (in pure theory) packages 
available in PLD.
Additionally: 67% of Th packages are patched with also almost 1.5 patches on 
average.


At http://ep09.pld-linux.org/~mmazur/pld/thlist.txt is a list of spec files 
I've used, should anyone be interested in, dunno, maybe generating the same 
numbers for the past two years (monthly intervals) and plotting that?
