mkvtoolnix @5.6.0 installation and runtime failures — at Initial Version

Port: mkvtoolnix

Description

Installing the latest version of mkvtoolnix fails on a fresh install of macports. The issue with the installation was that pkgconfig and curl are not defined as a dependency of mkvtoolnix. These are both required and I had to look in the log files to figure this out. After I installed them by hand mkvtoolnix install completed.

However, after installing mkvtoolnix the mkvextract tool doesn't work. Here is the runtime error I get:

mkvextract(48429) malloc: * error for object 0x7fff7aac4860: pointer being freed was not allocated * set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug

This might be a compilation error since it appears that the mkvtoolnix package is shipped as source rather than binary.
