Yep I agree completely, I'm taking a stab at this at this very moment as a matter of fact.

    and, finally, added a conflict with boost. Both port contains
    /usr/local/bin/b2 but such conflict makes installing it quite
    tricky because
    a bit less than 200 ports depends on devel/boost.


I'd be OK if we rename b2 in this port to something else...

In debian they seem to rename the binary b2 -> backblaze-b2, according to:

https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/all/backblaze-b2/filelist

So, maybe a lot of people don't depend on that name on their scripts...

Thoughts?
