Hi danfe@, On many systems (all except gnu based?), gnutools are prefixed with 'g': - https://github.com/NetBSD/pkgsrc/blob/trunk/textproc/grep/Makefile#L18 - http://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/ports/sysutils/ggrep/Makefile?rev=1.41&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup same on macOs, etc Our gsed, also have this 'g' program-prefix: - https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports/blob/main/textproc/gsed/Makefile#L16 Please, can we prefix the gnugrep ports with 'g' or at least create a symlink?
A commit in branch main references this bug: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/ports/commit/?id=f515b0e657e7bd11d88725e9bc3cb1ccb3706baa commit f515b0e657e7bd11d88725e9bc3cb1ccb3706baa Author: Alexey Dokuchaev <danfe@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2022-08-11 10:13:08 +0000 Commit: Alexey Dokuchaev <danfe@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2022-08-11 10:13:08 +0000 textproc/gnugrep: add missing dependency, build with --program-prefix=g - Add run-time dependency on `textproc/groff': the manual page won't be rendered if groff(1) is not installed; - By popular demand, configure the port with `--program-prefix=g' as we do for other GNU utilities. This places the binaries within the same namespace more consistently; several other non-GNU/Linux systems, e.g. NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, macOS (Homebrew) are doing the same. Avoid POLA violation by creating traditionally named compatibility symlinks.

After some consideration, I guess it does make sense, committed!
(In reply to Alexey Dokuchaev from comment #2) Thanks!
