Trying to install brew-cask after tapping caskroom/cask,
brew tap caskroom/cask
brew install brew-cask
But getting error,
$ brew install brew-cask

This similarly named formula was found:

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

Shouldn't it tell me what version of Homebrew I have and that it's installed?
I am trying to set up my Homebrew so that I can use it with git. I am trying to do brew install git and brew install git-lfs but I get the below error messages when I try to do that.

To find the installed version, use the -v option.
% brew -v

You will need to reinstall, and make sure it uses /opt/homebrew because you are on an M1.
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
There shouldn't be any errors displayed when this runs.

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
I'm trying to install bazel on my mac (10.11.5).
I can see that it is available through brew:
http://braumeister.org/formula/bazel
But when I run "brew install bazel", I get this:
Error: No available formula for bazel

Why is this?
In my case, Homebrew was already up-to-date after running brew update and I still received the same error messages as the OP when trying to install xdebug:
$ brew update
Already up-to-date.
$ brew install php70-xdebug
Error: No available formula with the name "php70-xdebug"
Using Mark's suggestion from the comments on OP solved the problem:
$ brew search xdebug
homebrew/php/xdebug-osx homebrew/php/php70-xdebug
So now, running $ brew install homebrew/php/php70-xdebug, Homebrew found and installed the package.
You should update your brews, because it is indeed available. Run
brew update
brew install bazel
and then it should work.
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...
