I copied the patch into
/home/tom/rh9-downloads/sane-backends-1.0.12/backend/avision.diff
and executed
[tom at localhost gnucashShadow]$ cd
~/rh9-downloads/sane-backends-1.0.12/backend
[tom at localhost backend]$ patch -p0 < ./avision.diff
can't find file to patch at input line 8
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:

I have almost no experience with patch.  What went wrong?
