Description

Recently --with-default-names was deprecated/removed. This leaves me in a position where I now have to manually manage my path post install for every package I add, looking into /usr/local/opt/<name>/libexec/gnubin which is massively painful to keep maintained properly or to remember to do.

More painful yet, is the mishmash of pre/post removal package installations where some need this manual treatment and some just work.

Please consider some option where I can go to get *all* my gnu tools by adding links to a single spot into my bash file instead of this error prone, per-install process.
