Please `brew unlink telnet` before continuing.
Unlinking removes a formula's symlinks from /usr/local. You can
link the formula again after the install finishes. You can --force this
install, but the build may fail or cause obscure side effects in the
resulting software.

If you really need to use these commands with their normal names, you
can add a "gnubin" directory to your PATH from your bashrc like:
PATH="/usr/local/opt/inetutils/libexec/gnubin:$PATH"
Follow the prompts to use the ftp command directly to add it to the path
vim ~/.bash_profile
Add PATH="/usr/local/opt/inetutils/libexec/gnubin:$PATH" to it
