This command $ for d in $(ls) ; do if [ -d $d ] ; then echo "$d: $((100*$(cd $d; ls | grep "[A-Z]" | wc -l)/$(cd $d; ls | wc -l)))%"; fi; done; shows that 20-30% of ports tree directories already have some capitalization in them, so it is too late to fight for this. This is a particularly high percentage considering that many older software titles don't use capitalization. If your hypothesis is that technical issues are at the heart of the matter, you should provide some proof. For example, links to user/devs complaints that such capitalization causes problems, references to failures of some sort that were in some way caused by capitalized entries. In the case at hand, libQGLViewer, the software is commonly known as libQGLViewer, its DISTNAME has capitalization, it installs directories and binaries with capitalization, QGLViewer/libQGLViewer-qt5.so, and, as you've mentioned, RedHat and Gentoo packages are also named with capitalization. So, by all counts it should be named libQGLViewer. Regards, Yuri
