I had to switch to homebrew because this and a couple of other ports weren't available and didn't look like they ever would be. Several users request and no developers even bother to comment...

According to wikipedia, an updated fork is maintained here: https://git.linuxtv.org/zbar.git With a bugtracker here: https://github.com/mchehab/zbar/issues

Looks like a patch is required: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/blob/master/Library/Formula/zbar.rb
