However, the par2cmdline gives "Main packet not found" error when checking par2-files. There is a 'linux-par2cmdline' which is to be used when par2cmdline gives the "Main packet not found" error - but it seems as it is not necessary, since the version i compiled from the sourceforge-sources works just fine. >How-To-Repeat: Install hellanzb from ports and enable par2-checking - par2 checking will fail. Running par2 from the command line will reveal the error "Main packet not found". >Fix: The sources available at sourceforge work: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=30568&package_id=82331 They compile fine after applying the patch found in the ports tree at archivers/par2cmdline/files/patch-reedsolomon.cpp This only builds a 'par2' binary - not the par2verify and par2repair that build when you install from ports - but hellanzb works with only the 'par2' binary as well. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
