corutils installs its tools with a 'g' prefix (for GNU), and the gdu port attempts to install the same binary. I'd like to have both installed. Can we find a way to make this happen?

If not, gdu and coreutils should at least use the conflicts keyword.

Perhaps the gdu binary could be renamed to something like gdu-go? (And call out the binary name in the port notes, to avoid user confusion.)
