I am trying to install Erlang in a Mac OS system with Mojave on it. However the installation hangs for no apparent reason:
$ asdf install erlang 22.2.8
asdf_22.2.8 is not a kerl-managed Erlang/OTP installation
The asdf_22.2.8 build has been deleted
Extracting source code
Building Erlang/OTP 22.2.8 (asdf_22.2.8), please wait...
I know the issue is not the network, as I have downloaded everything and the step that hangs forever is the Building step.
I have removed and re-installed both asdf and Erlang from scratch as well, but it didn't fix the issue.
I believe I have all necessary dependencies as well, otherwise the re-installation would have failed.
What can I do to fix this?
Go to ~/.asdf/plugins/erlang/kerl-home/builds/asdf_22.2.8 and look at the otp_build_22.2.8.log file. It should tell you what's going on.
Solution
Thanks to the post by #legoscia I went to ~/.asdf/plugins/erlang/kerl-home/builds/asdf_22.2.8 and looked at the otp_build_22.2.8.log while it was still being built.
By checking this I was actually able to find out that I had a problem with my brew installation, which in turn meant I was using a very outdated version of XCode and XTools.
By forcing an upgrade on my machine (and as a consequence fixing my broken brew installation), I was then able to smoothly run and install asdf install erlang.
I know this is the solution, but I will give credit to #legoscia, as without him/her I would not have been able to fix my issue.

I'm trying to install Wine on my Mac via Brew. I'm using Catalina and just updated brew, installed XQuartz and have Xcode installed. When I type the command "Brew install wine" it returns the following:
Error: No available formula with the name "wine"
==> Searching for a previously deleted formula (in the last month)...
Warning: homebrew/core is shallow clone. To get complete history run:

wine was deleted from homebrew/core in commit 82bd38bc:
wine: delete
To show the formula before removal run:
git -C "$(brew --repo homebrew/core)" show 82bd38bc^:Formula/wine.rb
If you still use this formula consider creating your own tap:

I'm following this tutorial: https://www.davidbaumgold.com/tutorials/wine-mac/
When I run Brew doctor I get the following:

I was able to build Wine 64 bit from source on macOS Catalina and successfully run Notepad++ 64 bit on it.
My steps were more or less something like that:
Download Wine 4.20 from https://dl.winehq.org/wine/source/4.x/wine-4.20.tar.xz
Extract it
In terminal go to extracted directory
Run: ./configure --enable-win64
It showed that it cannot find some library (I do not remember what exactly) so I installed it with macports (sudo port install name_of_missing_package reported by ./configure)
After I was able to run ./configure --enable-win64 succesfully without errors in terminal run: make
It compiled after more than 30 minutes.
I run it with: ./wine start
It opened windows console and here I was able to cd to Notepad++ 64 bit directory (downloaded from https://notepad-plus-plus.org/repository/7.x/7.0/npp.7.bin.x64.zip note that newest version did not work and throwed some errors about some dll's)
I typed notepad++ to run exe file
It showed some errors about freetype fonts so I installed them with macports and I had to copy them from /opt/X11/lib to /usr/local/lib before wine detected them
After fixing freetype fonts problem I was able to run notepad++
Also you might want to run: sudo spctl --master-disable to disable gatekeeper if you will see some system alerts about loading app from unknown developer.
Also note that instead of ./wine start you can run ./wine explorer for graphical file manager instead of console
Those steps might not be exactly precise, as I'm not sure if I did not miss something but hope it will help someone.
Also note that obviously wine on macOS Catalina will be able to run only some 64 bit windows apps and all 32 bit windows app will not work. I also tested it with IrfanView 64 bit (https://www.fosshub.com/IrfanView.html?dwl=iview453_x64_setup.exe) and it also works fine.
In case you wanted to get wine working for purpose of running 32 bit games then unfortunately it will not work with wine but you can try with virtualbox. You can check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3AO8dF0vviQ for some performance improvements tips.
Wine hast been removed from homebrew due to the incompatibility to Macos Catalina
https://discourse.brew.sh/t/issue-with-wine/6188/3
Try using wine64 to run your .exe files after installing wine. The manuals and references don't seem to mention this explicitly.
More Info
I followed the guidance in the wine manual to install using home-brew. After install, I got an error when trying to test the installation like it says in the quickstart.
Install wine-stable using homebrew
brew tap homebrew/cask-versions
brew install --cask --no-quarantine wine-stable
After install, test by opening notepad
wine notepad
zsh: bad CPU type in executable: wine
While uninstalling wine, I noticed one of the linked libraries was called wine64. I immediately reinstalled and tried again using wine64 as the call, as I am using wine on an M1 Mac. This was successful!
You can also use winehelp to get access to more commands that will work with 64bit processor.
Based on https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/46556#issuecomment-559938873 you can do brew cask install wine-stable on newer version of OS X. And works with recent versions of homebrew since the source version was moved :(
How to install wine on Mac OS Catalina with brew
install homebrew with
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"
install xquartz to install wine using brew
brew cask install xquartz
install wine using brew
brew install homebrew/cask-versions/wine-devel
run wine and check the version
wine64 --version
As of Wine 5.0 there is no 32bit support on mac in the official version, but you are able to achieve it via the
Unofficial Wineskin Winery
You can download it from github releases here. And then create a Wineskin with WS11WineCX[64/32]bit19.0.[0/1]. All WS11 versions support Catalina. To use it you also need to turn off the no32exec boot argument. You theoretically can do it by typing:
sudo nvram boot-args="no32exec=0"
into the Terminal while you're logged in but it didn't work out for me, so if you'll have the same problem, reboot into the Recovery mode, in the menubar pick Utilities -> Terminal and type just:
nvram boot-args="no32exec=0"
(without sudo).
Example
To be more exact, to install eg. Steam 32bit, you would:
Install the Unofficiall Wineskin Winery from the provided link
Turn on the 32bit execution boot argument by going into Recovery Mode and entering nvram boot-args="no32exec=0" into the terminal
Open Wineskin, click the '+' sign and scroll down to find the WS11WineCX64bit19.0.1 (the newest version with 64 and 32 bit support, at the time of writing)
Click update/install under the Wrapper Version.
Click Create New Blank Wrapper, name it and click through installation of mono and gecko.
Launch the Wrapper App from Finder. Click Install Software, choose setup executable, and proceed through installation. Then pick the executable from a menu. (In case of steam, Steam.exe)
Note: If you get the "No windows app to open the file"(Like I did) error, click advanced -> configuration and set the Windows EXE to the path to the installer. Then find the place that it has installed in and set that as Windows EXE. Then you can run by clicking Test Run.
Enjoy your windows app, as an .app file!
Hope I helped!
I recently did an update/upgrade with homebrew, and now gv no longer opens any of my .ps files. The Ghostscript error window that comes up says "Unknown device: x11 Error: PostScript interpreter failed in main window".
If I try gs --help, it doesn't list x11 under available devices, and the Default output device is "bbox". I tried uninstalling and reinstalling through homebrew. I tried to reinstall adding "--with-x11" but that throws the error "invalid option: --with-x11" - apparently that's no longer allowed. I've upgraded my command line code through the app store, and tried all of this again - nothing changed. I'm on High Sierra 10.13.3, using Homebrew 2.0.6, ghostscript 9.26_1, and gv 3.7.4.
I'm not a Mac developer so I'm not completely familiar with Homebrew, but it does sound like the package has been built wiithout X11 support. The fact that --help doesn't list the device is pretty clear.
I do notice from the website that in the last 30 days there have been 2 downloads of --with-x11. So possibly they've removed X11 support recently.
The only other thing I can suggest (assuming you are comfortable with compiling yourself) is to get the sources from www.ghostscript.com, untar the source tarball, then in a terminal window, from the 'ghostpdl' directory, execute ./autogen.sh, then when that is complete, execute 'make'.
Assuming you have autotools, gcc and the X11 development package, that should build a version of Ghostscript which includes X support. Looking at the Homebrew forumla, and assuming this has worked for you in the past, I think you should be able to build Ghostscript that way.
You might want to add --disable-cups --disable-compile-inits --disable-gtk --disablefontconfig --without-libidn to the ./autogen.sh command line to mimic the Homebrew formula. I'm not sure why they disable CUPS, but whatever.
Other than that, this isn't really a Ghostscript question as such, you would need to contact whoever handles the Homebrew Ghostscript distribution, which isn't any of the Ghostscript development team.
For those searching for a solution, I've put together a custom Homebrew tap that allows you to easily install GV (commonly called Ghostview, but really a derivative of it):
brew install johnhcc/gs-x11/gv
This will automatically install a version of Ghostscript with X11 enabled in the process (it is a dependency). You can optionally install the dependency by itself, it you want:
brew install johnhcc/gs-x11/ghostscript-x11
The main page is here:

I get the following error when trying to install valgrind on the version of macOS using brew:
valgrind: This formula either does not compile or function as expected
on macOS versions newer than Sierra due to an upstream
incompatibility. Error: An unsatisfied requirement failed this build.
I have tried to follow suggestions from all related posts on the issue, and even tried building valgrind using the ./configure option after downloading the source tarball. But that too fails with a gcc incompatibility error, which I am unable to overcome, despite following workaround suggestions on the Web.
Any help would be appreciated.
TIA
Vinod
brew install --HEAD valgrind seems to work now.
See this issue for more details.
You may wish to build it directly and install instead of using home-brew. I have created a port of valgrind 3.13.0 to work on macOS High Sierra (10.13.x). You can get it here: https://github.com/padiakalpesh/valgrind_3.13_high_sierra
Once you have obtained the source, run the following commands from inside the source directory:
./configure
make
sudo make install
I'm trying to install homebrew on my mac verison 10.7.5, error msg comes up: The requested URL returned error: 404 Error: Failed to download resource "openssl" Download failed: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DomT4/LibreMirror/master/Open help! how do i fix?
Try update your brew
brew update
I have encountered the same issue on my mac (10.11 El Captian)
It's seems OpenSSL want to force users and package management softwares to update by removing their previous version.
I agree with #Webb Lu on this one.
Try brew update a few times. If this isn't working then try the command brew doctor to correct any errors.
If this fixes the issue, you may want to then run brew upgrade to upgrade anything that is out of date. For some reason I had to reinstall Xcode last night to run the upgrade command. Not sure what happened there, but it seemed to work for me.
I don't know if this is the solution for your issue, but I figured I'd throw my hat in the ring ha ha.
Best of luck!
After upgrading my OS X Lion to Mavericks, I've encountered with strange problems.
At first, It gave me segmentation fault or bus error. After searching for a bit I've noticed that it's related to the readline library. The solution was described by bugs.python.org:
curl -O http://bugs.python.org/file32324/patch_readline_issue_18458.sh
openssl sha1 patch_readline_issue_18458.sh # the digest should be 7cb0ff57820a027dd4ca242eb2418930f8f46b4c
sudo sh ./patch_readline_issue_18458.sh
This will disable the readline library. The errors are gone now but I have another problem. In Python shell when I press arrow keys (up, down, left or right) it gives me these: ^[[A, [[C^, ^[[B, ^[[D. I think the problem is still related to the readline library but I don't know how to solve it.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
I'm no authority on the guts of Python, so take my advice with caution. But, having encountered the same problem after the Mavericks upgrade (and using Python 2.7), I just did a
easy_install readline
at the command line, and everything seems to be working again. No more segmentation error, and arrow keys in the Python shell appear to be functioning normally.
The (brand new) Python 3.3.3rc1 fixes the SegFault problem.
It's here: http://www.python.org/download/releases/3.3.3/
