Error attempting to uninstall Kibana with Brew - homebrew

I installed Kibana on myb mac using brew. The kibana version is too recent for my ES cluster so I was going to uninstall and reinstall an older version.
When I issue this command:
brew uninstall kibana
I get the following error:
Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/kibana
I'm absolutely positive I installed using "brew install kibana" Is there anything I can do to uninstall kibana so I can reinstall an older version?

If you list directories inside Cellar folder, you will find a folder named kibana-full. You need to run
brew uninstall kibana-full

Xdebug install on macOS

I'm trying to install Xdebug on macOS Catalina but home-brew no longer allowed to run as root. Worked fine before Catalina update.
I was running Xdebug under Mojave but Catalina upgrade broke it. Removed extension to reinstall and then hit hombrew issue: get the following error when running brew as root:
Error: Running Homebrew as root is extremely dangerous and no longer supported.
As Homebrew does not drop privileges on installation you would be giving all
build scripts full access to your system.
Brew should be working without using sudo.
If that's not the case, your homebrew install is broken and you might need to reinstall it.
In any case brew doctor is something you can always consult.
After you got your homebrew fixed,
looking into Can't install xdebug on Mac with Homebrew might be of help.
Updating homebrew should do the trick -
brew update

Can anyone help with this issue?
Simply run:
brew uninstall paste
You're getting the error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/pastewhenbrew uninstall Past because there are no brew formulae installed or in the official Homebrew repository named paste.
brew install paste
Error: No available formula with the name "paste"
I guess you've installed it using cask:
brew cask install paste
If you try to uninstall it using brew you'll get that error:
brew uninstall Paste
Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/paste
To uninstall paste simply use brew cask instead:
brew cask uninstall paste

brew install rbenv Error: rbenv-rbenv already installed To install this version, first `brew unlink rbenv`

I am trying to install rbenv on OS X by following instruction from site link - setup ruby on macbook
when I try brew install rbenv I get below error
Error: rbenv-rbenv already installed To install this version, first 'brew unlink rbenv'
Here is the output from brew doctor
brew doctor
Your system is ready to brew.
I tried brew unlink rbenv on which fails with message Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/rbenv
Please suggest how this can be solved.
I have tried all solutions as listed below
brew update
brew prune
brew link rbenv
nothing really works
This, I was able to solve by thrashing all the junk files and folders related to rbenv still existing in the system; as brew link rbenv wasn't working
Use command below to find any rbenv files/folder still existing in the system.
sudo find /user/ -name "*rbenv*"
most of the issues could be because /usr/local/opt may still have folders related to rbenv
then carefully remove any listed files/folder using command
sudo rm -r <folder-listed-in-result-of-above-command>
then try brew install rbenv, follow any output from this command (which may suggest brew unlink rbenv && brew link rbenv) and you should be good to go.
I do not recommend file/folder thrashing this way as it could be risky however, to be frank, this is only what worked for me.

Homebrew PHP5.6 memcached installation error

I'm trying to install the memcached extension for PHP 5.6 via Homebrew.
brew install php56-memcached
The error I get is
Error: No such file or directory - /usr/local/opt/igbinary/include/igbinary.h
I've tried reinstalling php56-igbinary and php56 itself. Neither fixes this problem. I tried to locate any files named igbinary.h and could not find any on the computer. How do I fix this?
You try remove and reinstall these pakage
brew remove php56-igbinary php56-memcached
brew reinstall php56 --enable-maintainer-zts --build-from-source php56-igbinary --build-from-source php56-memcached --build-from-source
Worked for me with php56-redis with the same error message.
brew reinstall --enable-maintainer-zts --build-from-source php56-redis
php56-igbinary is used from installation location when installing from source

Error installing CouchDB with homebrew osx 10.8 - skip dependency?

So I tried to install it according to the directions on couchdb wiki. and I get the following issue
Installing couchdb dependency: erlang-r15
==> Downloading https://github.com/erlang/otp/archive/OTP_R15B03-1.tar.gz
Already downloaded: /Library/Caches/Homebrew/erlang-r15-R15B03-1.tar.gz
Error: SHA1 mismatch
Expected: 5ba866722de79956b06966c232490d32bb7ba0a6
Actual: 7843070f5d325f95ef13022fc416b22b6b14120d
Archive: /Library/Caches/Homebrew/erlang-r15-R15B03-1.tar.gz
Is there anyway to tell brew to skip this dependency since I have already installed the correct version of erlang, and it can't see it?
Did you try brew uninstall couchdb and re install after?
I had the same issue, it fixed it for me
So to get this working I followed the instruction on the couchdb until the install couchdb command:
brew remove --force openssl erlang couchdb icu4c spidermonkey nspr
brew update
brew outdated
brew rm --force erlang
cd /usr/local
git checkout 168742f Library/Formula/erlang.rb
brew install erlang
since I knew I had the right erlang installed I altered the Bew formula to make it work correctly.
So I headed over to the formula at
vim /usr/local/Library/Formula/couchdb.rb
And altered the dependency line
depends_on 'erlang-15'
to
depends_on 'erlang'
and works great now!!
None of the solutions here worked for me, but the below did. Note, I had to build with unixodbc.
brew remove --force openssl erlang couchdb icu4c spidermonkey
brew update
brew install unixodbc
brew install homebrew/versions/erlang-r15 --with-unixodbc
# edit /usr/local/Library/Formula/couchdb.rb to change depends_on to 'erlang-r15'
brew install couchdb
You may want to first try force removing only erlang and couchdb -- as someone in this thread mentioned that force removing packages messed up his system (though I did not encounter this problem when running the above instructions).
