dpkg-deb on macOS

See original GitHub issue

The supplied dpkg-deb from procurces results in this error:

[*] Packaging the deb file...
dyld[4327]: Library not loaded: @rpath/libmd.0.dylib
  Referenced from: /Users/syto203/Documents/Repositories/permasigner/dpkg-deb
  Reason: tried: '/opt/procursus/lib/libmd.0.dylib' (no such file), '/opt/procursus/lib/libmd.0.dylib' (no such file), '/usr/local/lib/libmd.0.dylib' (no such file), '/usr/lib/libmd.0.dylib' (no such file)

linking the one already installed (brew or macports) to the path of permasigner instead of downloading from procurses mitigates this error.

I’d rather not have people use MacPorts. Brew isn’t great but it’s way better than MacPorts. If people use MacPorts they probably know they can use that too.

I will close this as I cannot find another source of dpkg-deb for macOS. Yes, I can link the dylibs and stuff, but I don’t exactly know how to do that.
