Description
When building Redox, after installing the toolchain and compiler, make all
fails with an error about the prepare stage of the cookbook recipe for xz
.
The error message says:
can't find the file to patch at input line 4
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
I suspect the files haven't been un-tarred properly for some reason, but I'm not sure.

Proposed solution:
I could remove the requirement that depends on
xz
, but I think it'sextrautils
that is requiring it, which seems like something I want.
