I'm digging in to the RPM spec file, from which there is this excerpt
for patches:
Name: ncurses
Version: 5.3
%define PATCHDATE 20021231
Release: 4
License: distributable
Group: System Environment/Libraries
URL: http://dickey.his.com/ncurses/ncurses.html
Source0: ftp://dickey.his.com/ncurses/ncurses-5.3.tar.bz2
Source2: ncurses-linux
Source3: ncurses-linux-m
Source4: ncurses-resetall.sh
Patch1: ftp://dickey.his.com/ncurses/5.3/patch-5.3-%{PATCHDATE}.sh.gz
Patch2: ftp://dickey.his.com/ncurses/5.3/ncurses-5.3-20030105.patch.gz

Patch12: ncurses-5.2-nocbt.patch
Patch13: ncurses-5.3-autoconf25.patch
Patch14: ncurses-5.3-20030131-terminfo.patch
...
zcat %{PATCH1} |sh
%patch2 -p1
%patch3 -p1
%patch4 -p1
%patch13 -p1 -b .ac25
%patch14 -p1 -b .rh
My knowledge of rpm internals is very limited, but it seems that in the
above ftp URL references that the rollup patch-5.3-20021231.sh is being
used, followed by three other patches from 2003. However, when I go to
the ftp URL, those patches (beyond the rollup patch named above) are not
available. Were patches 20030105, 200030111, and 20030118 replaced with
other patches? I see several ncurses-5.3-2003xxxx patches, and some
patch-5.3-2003xxxx.sh patches, which are more current.
