also, while trying to determine the md5sum of the package, i discovered

that the md5sum command appears to be missing from the corefiles port.

"info corefiles" suggests that it should be present but i cannot find it

in /opt/local/bin.


The coreutils port adds a "g" prefix in order to minimize conflicts with built-in Mac OS X tools:


$ port provides `which gmd5sum`

/opt/local/bin/gmd5sum is provided by: coreutils

$ port provides `which gsha1sum`

/opt/local/bin/gsha1sum is provided by: coreutils


Mac OS X includes its own md5 command:


$ which md5

/sbin/md5


coreutils also has a +normal_install_names variant, if you don't want the "g" prefix.
