Hi Igor,
Somewhere within the make file they are issuing the strip command that
strips out debugging information from executables. This makes the file
considerably shorter, sometimes dramatically so. For some reason your
strip command is not recognizing the format of the executable file:
sfvod. Hopefully, somebody else can tell you why. Try 'file
/usr/local/bin/sfvod' without the apostrophes of course. If you get
something like:
elf32 binary executable
you should be okay.
