par2tbb and OSX SABnzbd v0.7.4

Post by Alives »

I have par2tbb installed via homebrew on OSX. My location is unique, and the path environment variable that determines how to reach it is only specified in my zshrc.

I need a way to tell SAB where this par2 binary is. I tried symlinking it into the par2 directory, but SAB is preferring it's builtin par2 options instead.

Code: Select all

% ls -dl /Applications/SABnzbd.app/Contents/Resources/osx/par2/* | colrm 1 48
/Applications/SABnzbd.app/Contents/Resources/osx/par2/LICENSE
/Applications/SABnzbd.app/Contents/Resources/osx/par2/par2 -> /usr/local/homebrew/bin/par2
/Applications/SABnzbd.app/Contents/Resources/osx/par2/par2-classic
/Applications/SABnzbd.app/Contents/Resources/osx/par2/par2-sl
But the log shows it didn't like this:

Code: Select all

2012-10-28 17:33:14,122::INFO::[SABnzbd:470] par2 binary... found (/Applications/SABnzbd.app/Contents/Resources/osx/par2/par2-sl)
Any chance you can add an INI directive or Config->Special directive for this?

Thanks!

You can just rename your par2 to par2-sl.
We're not going to add an option as we do not encourage experiments with alternative par2 programs,
that may lead to unsolvable support questions.
