rtmpdump @2.4_2: needs updating

[keybounce]

rtmpdump has been updated in git. While an official release has not been made, the current master has a number of bug fixes and improvements.

In particular, youtube-dl cannot fetch videos from BBC with the released version of rtmpdump, but can apparently do it with the current git master.

OK, I'd like some help here.

I cloned rtmpdump from the git. I wanted to replace macport's rtmpdump with the current one, so I modified the PREFIX= in the Makefile from /usr/local to /opt/local, and did the same thing in the rtmplib/Makefile as well.

Compiled (make SYS=darwin) no problem (lots of warnings)
sudo make install worked, and put everything into /opt/local.

But trying to run it gives

keybounceMBP:FrozenPlanet michael$ rtmpdump --version
dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/librtmp.1.dylib
  Referenced from: /opt/local/bin/rtmpdump
  Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap: 5

How do I make it reference /opt/local/lib instead of /usr/local/lib, given that I've modified the prefix -- and verified that the compilation/installation of the library is using /opt/local/lib?

Alternatively, how do I go about modifying the official portfile? (As in: I have never modified anything in macports so far, and don't even know what step zero is.)

Ideally, they should release a new version

You can read ​https://guide.macports.org/#development and ​https://guide.macports.org/#reference.phases.fetch.advanced

Also, looking at other Portfiles that use git is often helpful
