Hi!

I've noticed in a few packages that the binaries get installed with special names. For example, ruby gets installed as `ruby18'.
Also `ksh93' (when ast-ksh used to build, but that's a different story).

Is there a correct way to make the command `ruby' refer to `ruby18'?

Or should I just `ln -s /usr/pkg/bin/ruby18 /usr/pkg/bin/ruby' like I've been doing?
