  1. As far as I am aware, no such software is available in MacPorts. md5sum is a utility commonly available on Linux, but not OS X. openssl provides similar capability; if tovid is not yet capable of using openssl instead of md5sum, tovid should be patched to gain that capability.
  2. Ideally tovid should be patched to work with OS X's BSD readline; if that's not possible, then patching it to use greadlink, and adding a dependency on coreutils, would be acceptable.
  3. There is only one version of sox (or any other port) available in MacPorts. If tovid is not compatible with the version of sox currently in MacPorts, tovid should be patched to be compatible with it.

  • Ticket #33522 – Description

    initial v1  
    11There are multiple problems with this package.
    22
    3 1) It fails to install the dependancy md5sum. This isn't a showstopper, the dependancy can be installed manually.
    4 
    5 2) The scripts use the utility 'readlink', but pass it parameters that the osx version of readlink does not understand. Replacing readlink with greadlink (from the coreutils package) fixes the problem.
    6 
    7 3) The final problem, that I have not yet been able to overcome, is that it appears to install the incorrect version of sox. Sox bails out complaining about incorrect parameters.
