            Bug ID: 284669
           Summary: At least Rust, Erlang packages do not follow the
                    naming scheme similar to those for Perl, Python
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New

          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)

From https://freeradical.zone/@ax6761/113971102103846196, to quote self ...

💩 Not all of #FreeBSD #Rust packages have same naming scheme similar to those
of #Python & #Perl which have respective prefix of "py311-" & p5-".

#WhyTheDoubleStandard?

Now need to search for BOTH the package name & at least the comment if not the
description (well, sometimes comment & description do not share the same
interesting words as I would have hoped, expected).

Above is also true for some of Erlang packages.

Examples picked specifically to limit results without having to search for
comment|description, or where name would not be shared with packages for
languages besides Rust ...

pkg search -x 'sqlx-cli|sirula'
sirula-1.1.0                   Simple app launcher for Wayland written in Rust
sqlx-cli-0.8.3_1               Rust SQL Toolkit with support for PostgreSQL,
MySQL, SQLite, MSSQL
