[MacPorts] #17651: please reinstate mpeg4ip port
#17651: please reinstate mpeg4ip port -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: reid@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: High | Milestone: Port Requests Component: ports | Version: 1.7.0 Keywords: | Port: -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Something that I am working on requires the mpeg4ip port. Not the library, but rather the command line tools that are installed with it e.g. mp4creator. Unfortunately, libmp4v2 does not come with this tool and as such, cannot actually obsolete mpeg4ip as has been suggested in the discussion that resulted in mpeg4ip's removal. I have put the priority at high as this port was clearly removed on fallacious grounds (i.e. just because nothing else depends on it in the tree, doesn't mean it isn't used) and its removal broke my work (not currently in MacPorts, but hopefully I'll submit soon). The diff to the removed port can be found here: http://trac.macports.org/ticket/13879 Which corrects the duplicate mp4.h file being installed by other port(s) as well. My users are some of your users, and they've already complained about this. Please, reinstate this port. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17651> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

So, there would be no loss in functionality if the reinstatement of mpeg4ip didn't include the libraries. Personally, I'm just after the mp4creator command line tool that is only in mpeg4ip. Though, I imagine others might be after any other missing command line tools. For me, it's just a matter of restoring lost functionality to MacPorts. So, I guess that's a long winded version of, yes, for me it would be sufficient to restore mpeg4ip leaving out conflicts. But, I'll point out that when I tried to install libmp4v2, there seemed to be some other conflicts between these two ports. libmp4v2 seems to want to install some bin's as well (e.g. mp4dump). Doing a 'port contents mpeg4ip' and looking in the build directory for libmp4v2 opt/local/bin there are two executables that are missing from libmp4v2 that mpeg4ip provides. Namely, mp4creator and mp4videoinfo. So, installing those two binaries should restore full functionality to MacPorts. If this is possible to do and you do it, it would be greatly appreciated. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17651#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Added libmp4v2 as a run-time dependency. This should result in the same functionality as originally contained in mpeg4ip without the conflicts between ports. Closing the ticket as fixed but feel free to reopen if problems arise. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17651#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

When should I/we expect this port to show up in an selfupdate? I don't want to report it missing if it hasn't hit public yet. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17651#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
