Modify the patches to what you want (or the overide yaml) as usual. If you know how to integrate the latest patch files into the patching software, then you can get those from github (I didn't try this myself).

There is more info in the github pages about some of the patch issues - the biggest one that won't work for me at this point is the 24 line spacing patch.

I didn't have any issues with patching, however, you need to be prepared that this process could brick your LC despite the fact that others have patched their LC with out issues.
Per Geek1011, who releases the patches, one cannot brick their Kobo with patches that do not work. It is a fail-safe operation. Either the patch(es) will apply or they won't. Don't scare people with incorrect information.
