Create a recipe for tox. [POTENTIALLY VERY HARD TASK]

Create a recipe for tox, a new kind of encrypted P2P instant messaging app, supporting audio/video screen and file sharing, and much more.

Note: This is probably a very hard task, which will require a lot of skills. But if you have already completed several other "Create a recipe for ..." tasks then you find this one very challenging! It is not known, however, if this task is suitable for a GCI.

The goal of this task is to write a recipe for tox, a distributed, encrypted P2P, messaging, and audio/video calling platform.

You can find the sources on the project homepage: https://tox.chat/

You can also browse the sources on GitHub: https://github.com/Tox/tox.chat

The recipe should be added to haikuports at haikuports/net-libs/tox/.

Hint: net-libs/tox should depend on several other recipes that are already available in haikuports:

  • dev-libs/check.
  • dev-libs/libconfig
  • dev-libs/libsodium
  • media-libs/libvpx
  • media-libs/opus

Important: please read the generic instructions for "recipe" tasks, as we have a lot of these: https://dev.haiku-os.org/wiki/GoogleCodeInTaskRecipe
