on the Web site: https://www.freebsd.org/ports/ searching with 'All' or 'Package Name' for 'binutils' fails to show. However, the category: devel does list binutils. I later discovered on https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi?query=binutils&stype=all sparc64-binutils-2.33.1_4,1 GNU binary tools which has the link: https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/tree/devel/binutils therefore, something is mislabeled or misnamed. If the above binutils is really for 'sparc64' then where is the one for 'amd64' - (or elf64-x86-64-freebsd)?
On freshports: https://www.freshports.org/search.php?query=binutils&search=go&num=10&stype=name&method=match&deleted=excludedeleted&start=1&casesensitivity=caseinsensitive 'binutils GNU binary tools' is found and maintained Last Update: 2021-04-06 14:31:07
