Hi, make sure you have the latest gnu core utils installed.

I installed the latest coreutils via homebrew, which is mentioned on the manual page. Should I debug or do something else?

btw, I check the path of realpath and stackoverflow, macOS has builtin realpath.

Mac's built-in realpath is outdated. You need to set the PATH variable in your .bashrc or .zshrc after installing the latest coreutils. Follow the message after (re)installing coreutils.

after installing, homebrew said

Commands also provided by macOS and the commands dir, dircolors, vdir have been installed with the prefix "g".
If you need to use these commands with their normal names, you can add a "gnubin" directory to your PATH with:
  PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/coreutils/libexec/gnubin:$PATH"

so currently macOS users could use grealpath instead of realpath to execute the commands.

could we make softlink for realpath or make pr to modify commands in rust file.

The best way is to add export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/coreutils/libexec/gnubin:$PATH" in your .bashrc or .zshrc.

To create the softlinks, you'll need to replace the built-in commands which could break macos. Modifying the commands to add prefix g isn't a good way, since it will break on Linux, while the issue is caused by outdated macos binaries. One thing we can do is, if the realpath command fails, fall back to just touch.
