  Since 1.2, the patches require to use upgrade.php also. The build script was not yet prepared for this (read: I forgot to sync the scripts with this procedure) and therefore there was no upgrade.php included in the patch.
  
  I fixed this and this will probably give some new patch files available from the Cozi later today.

  It's great that patch file(s) were provided, less to upload, but please consider including an upgrade.html file in the docs directory of the patch that gives instructions for how the patch should be installed. The current upgrade.html included with the patch zip file doesn't even mention a patch, it's the standard upgrade instructions.
  
  When I see the word patch I figure it's a simple file overwrite, different from an upgrade that may include database changes and need to run an upgrade script.

  I agree there totally. The complete /docs directory is included, but that did not reflect actions for using patchfiles. And, indeed, patchfiles also require the upgrade.php now, which has not been the case in pre-1.2 releases. I understand the confusion.

  I also noticed that files become obsolete. Will the upgrade script take care of these obsolete files to keep the file structure clean
  ...
  I would think that running an update on Zikula or even a module should remove any file that is no longer of use.

  
  The upgrade script will not delete obsolete files, since generally a webserver should not have the permissions to remove files it didn't create itself. This is a good, and safer thing.
  
  However, the build process nicely generates a list of added, modified and deleted files. Maybe we can think of a nice way to include this list somewhere (instead of copying it manually at release time to a wiki/ download page or this forum).
  For now, the list is below:
