[Spice-devel] Minute bug fix for spice 0.12.4 for Debian based linux

[sujay]

Hi,

I recently found downloading spice source (version 0.12.4) on Ubuntu
14.04.2 Linux from Ubuntu repo creates an error as shown below

{{{

Close verification of the error i found it was problem with the creation of
the patch named "link-server-test-with-libm-libpthread.patch", which needs
to be corrected as following:
{{{

Hope this could be updated in future releases, if i am posting in a wrong
listing. Let me know
