https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=276915 Bug ID: 276915 Summary: FreeBSD md5sum doesn't accept '-' as stdin Product: Base System Version: 14.0-RELEASE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: h2+fbsdports@fsfe.org GNU md5sum accepts the following with identical semantics: echo "foo" | md5sum echo "foo" | md5sum - FreeBSD md5sum rejects the second, because it looks for a file named "-". This trips up scripts that rely on the GNU behaviour. Since the FreeBSD md5sum is meant to be compatible to the GNU counterpart, it would be great if the behaviour could be changed!
