Trying to install brew-cask after tapping caskroom/cask,
brew tap caskroom/cask
brew install brew-cask
But getting error,
$ brew install brew-cask
Updating Homebrew...
Error: No available formula with the name "brew-cask"
==> Searching for a previously deleted formula (in the last month)...
Error: No previously deleted formula found.
==> Searching for similarly named formulae...
This similarly named formula was found:
brew-cask-completion ✔
To install it, run:
brew install brew-cask-completion ✔
==> Searching taps...
==> Searching taps on GitHub...
Error: No formulae found in taps.
Tried brew cleanup, untapped caskroom/cask and reinstallation of brew-cask but no luck.
I installed, brew-cask-completion using brew install brew-cask-completion. And read somewhere brew-cask is deprecated. So what is the solution. I ignored it and installed the java open sdk. My question is, is it going to be a problem in future if I don't install it?
Thanks in advance!
It happens because of corrupted core installation, actually you will give this error for installing any packages, you should fix the with:
rm -fr $(brew --repo homebrew/core)
Then install what ever you want, for me:
brew intall deno
Try reinstalling it with these commands in this order:
brew uninstall brew-cask
brew untap caskroom/cask
brew tap caskroom/cask
brew install brew-cask
I'm trying to install java11 on Mac with
brew cask install java11
and I got an error:
Error: Cask java11 exists in multiple taps:
homebrew/cask-versions/java11
caskroom/versions/java11
Can you please help to fix this error?
The following commands resolve the issue with conflicting casks and then install java11:
brew untap homebrew/cask-versions
brew untap caskroom/versions
brew tap homebrew/cask-versions
brew cask install java11
This worked for me:
brew install java11
I also had to do this command so that it was in my path:
sudo ln -sfn /usr/local/opt/openjdk#11/libexec/openjdk.jdk /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/openjdk-11.jdk
I want to install screen, but what should I do next?
$ brew search screen
imgur-screenshot screen screenfetch screenresolution
caskroom/drivers/casio-screen-receiver caskroom/cask/screen-blacker caskroom/cask/show-my-screen caskroom/cask/syphon-virtual-screen
If you meant "screen" specifically:
It was migrated from homebrew/dupes to homebrew/core.
homebrew/dupe is now deprecated all its formula have been migrated to the main repository (homebrew/core). As screen is now in homebrew/core, you just have to do:
brew install screen
but if you want you can install other third-party repositories (e.g. homebrew/science), called taps in the homebrew terminology, with:
brew tap homebrew/science
You can then directly installed all formulas in this tap. You can also install a formula from an uninstalled tap with:
brew install homebrew/science/<formula>
To list all your installed taps:
brew tap
To remove a tap:
brew untap homebrew/science
I'm trying to remove extempore but I get the following:
$ brew uninstall extempore
Error: No available formula with the name "extempore-llvm"
Trying to uninstall extempore-llvm
$ brew uninstall extempore-llvm
Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/extempore-llvm
Adding --force does not do anything.
How do I remove this keg/formula completely? Brew can't uninstall/install/reinstall anything while this is an issue.
Remove /usr/local/Cellar/extempore-llvm manually, then execute brew prune.
I installed Homebrew Cask for kicks as described at http://caskroom.io/. It boils down to the following command:
$ brew install caskroom/cask/brew-cask
$ brew tap caskroom/versions
Homebrew Cask installed and everything was fine. Then I uninstalled Homebrew Cask like so:
$ brew untap caskroom/versions
$ brew uninstall brew-cask
Here are the current taps:
$ brew tap
homebrew/versions
Yet I see stuff from Cask when searching for items that wouldn't be part of Homebrew itself (like Graphical programs, aText, Fantastical etc.):
$ brew search atext
Caskroom/cask/atext
Though it doesn't install (as expected):
$ brew install atext
Error: No available formula for atext
Searching formulae...
Searching taps...
Caskroom/cask/atext
So the question is why does brew search Caskroom/cask and how do I get rid of it (I don't want Homebrew telling me it has aText, for example, when it can't install it)?
I am running Mac OS X Yosemite.
For the current version of Brew:
$ brew uninstall --cask yed
For older versions of Brew:
$ brew cask uninstall yed
the result:
==> Removing App symlink: '/Users/user/Applications/yEd.app'
As of Homebrew version 0.9.5, it appears that brew search will find items in Caskroom/cask/ without actually having Homebrew Cask installed. You can also install them, but this will actually install brew-cask as a dependency along the way.
Try:
brew install Caskroom/cask/atext
Command the terminal to "untap" at the prompt [MacOS Catalina 10.15.2]
Run
brew untap homebrew/cask-fonts
Expected output
Untapping homebrew/cask-fonts...
