Sorry, but this is complete gibberish to me.

"If you are trying to use the 3.19.5761 patch zip, you'll need to remove the nickel line from kobopatch.yaml"
But the first uncommented lines in the yaml file say

version: 3.19.5761
in: src/kobo-update-3.19.5761.zip

so yes, I am trying to create that patch and the yaml file seems to be meant for that very version. So why do I need to edit it further? Why does it contain lines that don't fit?

"you'll need to remove the nickel line from kobopatch.yaml" But there are more than one line with "nickel" in the yaml. In the following section alone we have "nickel" four times:

patches:
src/nickel.patch: usr/local/Kobo/nickel
src/libadobe.so.patch: usr/local/Kobo/libadobe.so
src/libnickel.so.1.0.0.patch: usr/local/Kobo/libnickel.so.1.0.0
src/librmsdk.so.1.0.0.patch: usr/local/Kobo/librmsdk.so.1.0.0

And down below there's more. Anyway, I removed the line that begins src/nickel.patch and it seemed to finally generate a KoboRoot.tgz. I'll give it a shot.

Thanks for doing your best to patch Kobo, but the procedure remains totally incomprehensible and convoluted.
