Faster Pulley Menues

Hello!
The new Pulley Menues of Sailfish OS > 1.9 are showing animations after selection, which makes the actual selection itself slower. Nodevel has written a patch for Patchmanager, which removes the animation. This doesn't work anymore with Sailfish OS 2.0 because the patch modifies a QML-File and this file was changed at the very same hunk, to make the animations a little bit faster in the new 2.0.0.10 release.

I've modified the patch and it works again. While I can code C/C++ I'm not experienced with Sailfish/Mer-Development, I just want repackage the RPM with the new patch. To my suprise RPM seems to be not a plain archive like the package from Archlinux' Pacman (xz compressed archives) or Slackware (tar with gnuzip compression). I even can express in polite words, how disgusting RPM is.

Can you help me? - Tell me very straight trick to immediatley modify the contents RPM v3.0 bin ARM. I'm running a plain Archlinux and the SailfishOS-SDK is installed. I just don't want install any foreign rpm-tools from random sources, including AUR.
- Or can you do that for me - Or can you tell me a very straight way (SailfishOS-SDK is installed) to create a valid-patch-rpm for patchmanager

Thank you

// UPDATE
Thanks to equeim for his brief and working explanation of the needed steps and the sample SPEC. Here is the RPM with the patch for patchmanager which remove the slow animations:
http://www.ttyhoney.com/sailfish/sailfishos-patch-faster-pulley-menus-0.2-2.noarch.rpm

  1. Install Patchmanager, if not installed
  2. Install the Patch
  3. Enable the patch in Patchmanager
  4. Settings -> Uitilties -> Restart Homescreen OR reboot your Jolla

Notes:
You must remove the patch before upgrading SailfishOS! Use at your own risk.

Thank you!
