I only see gawk version 5.0.0 here. I'd like to revert to a previous gawk version that were used to be in homebrew. I could check the git history and find out the appropriate version of the .rb file. But it is too tedious. Is there a much easier to revert to an older version of gawk?

I am trying to install the ruby 2.6.5 on mac having m1 pro chip but it's giving error of "__rvm_make -j10".
I tried to google but won't find error with "__rvm_make -j10". there is one question with the same error on stackoverflow and i tried the same method but it won't worked too.
i tried "rvm install 2.6.5 --with-out-ext=fiddle"
i tried with open ssl 1.0 too, but not any one worked.

UPDATE: Here's an updated blog post I wrote with the possible options if you really must use Ruby 2.6.x: https://www.rubyonmac.dev/how-to-install-ruby-2-6-on-macos-13-ventura
Instead, I highly recommend updating your project to at least 2.7.7. Here's a detailed guide I wrote that shows How and Why to Upgrade the Ruby Version in Your Project
Ruby 2.6.x is no longer supported on any Mac that has version 14 or higher of Apple's command line tools, which would be the case on macOS Ventura (13.0). Assuming you have Homebrew installed, you can check which version you have by running brew config, and then look towards the bottom for the lines that starts with CLT: and Xcode:
Ruby 2.6 reached end of life in March 2022, so it should not be used in production for security reasons. A lot of people get stuck because they think they have to use the version of Ruby that's specified in the project's .ruby-version and/or Gemfile. Instead, it's recommended to update the project to a newer version.
In most cases, it would be as easy as following these steps:
Install Ruby 2.7.7
Replace "2.6.x" with "2.7.7" in .ruby-version and Gemfile, and any other file where the Ruby version is specified (except Gemfile.lock because it should never be edited manually)
Run bundle install
Update any gems if necessary
Run your tests and make sure your app still works
Now that you know the recommended approach, let's go over 2 solutions in case you have a special need to use Ruby 2.6 before you update to 2.7.7:
Install Ruby with Homebrew
Downgrade to version 13.4 of the command line tools
Install Ruby with Homebrew
Install Homebrew if you haven't already
Install Ruby 2.6.10: brew install ruby#2.6
Follow the instructions for setting your PATH. For example, Homebrew will say something like this:
By default, binaries installed by gem will be placed into:
/opt/homebrew/lib/ruby/gems/2.6.0/bin
You may want to add this to your PATH.
If you need to have ruby first in your PATH, run:
echo 'export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/ruby/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc
The reason this works is because this is a pre-built version of Ruby that was compiled with version 13.3 of the command line tools. However, note that it's not officially supported.
Note that you'll need to disable RVM or any other version manager you might have used before. And you'll only be able to use 2.6.10 with this setup. You won't be able to switch to other versions that you might have installed with RVM or another version manager.
This is meant as a temporary solution so that you can run your project with 2.6.10 and then update it to 2.7.7. Also, note that either way, you will need to update your project to at least 2.6.10. There's absolutely no reason to use 2.6.5. You should always make sure your apps are running the latest version in a series. For 2.6, it's 2.6.10, for 2.7, it's 2.7.7, then 3.0.5, and 3.1.3.
Downgrade to version 13.4 of the command line tools
This is not possible on macOS Ventura (13.0), so don't waste your time trying. If you're on macOS Monterey, you can download version 13.4 of the command line tools from Apple's developer site, and then install them. I also wrote step-by-step instructions for installing version 13.4 of the command line tools if you need them.
The following works fine with macOS Ventura 13.1. You have to choose an older openssl version e.g. openssl#1.0.2t
Make sure you have home-brew installed /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
(Optional) Check if you already have openssl versions installed via home-brew. Uninstall not ncessary versions brew uninstall openssl
Install openssl via home-brew: brew install openssl#1.0.2t
Check the path where your local home-brew packages go. In my case it is /usr/local/opt/openssl#1.0/.
Install ruby with rvm rvm install 3.1.3 --with-openssl-dir=/usr/local/opt/openssl#1.0/
I've been through a similar problem in Ubuntu 22.10. Here are some points that may help you:
Your OpenSSL may be too updated and probably has some breaking changes that don't allow some of your ruby C files to be compiled. Download a previous version at OpenSSL website, install it in a different location than your current version and use rvm install --with-openssl-dir=<old-openssl-dir> 2.6.5 as mentioned in Chris' answer.
Instead of using --with-openssl-dir option, you could add your old OpenSSL /bin and /include files directly in environment variables in your rvm command, like this: PATH=<old-openssl-bin-path>:$PATH C_INCLUDE_PATH=<old-openssl-include-path>:/usr/include rvm install 2.6.5. This could be useful in the case that --with-openssl-dir option isn't available for some reason. You also need to create links to the /lib files in your old OpenSSL folder. You'll probably find paired files like libssl.so and libssl.so.1.1. You can just move the version-named files into /usr/lib(or similar for macos), otherwise when you execute openssl command from your old OpenSSL folder, it will probably raise an error saying that openssl can't find libraries. If you choose to use this method, make sure that your rvm user bin files (at ~/.rvm/usr/bin) don't contain any files that may mess the ruby installing (like another openssl executable). You may get rid of this folder using rvm pkg remove.
Another possible solution is changing your gcc version. My OS came with gcc version 12.2.0, which comes with a change in computer gotos that failed my make step. To find errors in your ruby installation, check the make.log file specified at the rvm command error message and look for lines like this:
I know how to install Homebrew like in https://brew.sh/. It always installs the latest version of homebrew (current version is 2.0.2). I find some incompatibilities between the current and 1.x.
How can I install 1.x version of homebrew?
Thanks.
Although I don't recommend this, but you should be able to just checkout the old version of Homebrew in Homebrew directory.
# install new Homebrew
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
# Go to Homebrew folder
cd /usr/local/Homebrew
# Checkout old version
git checkout 1.0.0
What's the incompatibility you are talking about? I think it is easier to solve your incompatibility than use an old version of Homebrew.
homebrew supports the installation of different versions of a package.
Homebrew install specific version of formula?
But I don't see different versions specified in homebrew formulas.
https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/bash.rb
Does anybody know how the support of different versions of a package is implemented in homebrew? Thanks.
There is at least three different ways package versions are supported by Homebrew.
1) With brew switch, you can switch back to a version of a package you already installed. For example typing brew switch ansible, I obtain:
ansible installed versions: 2.7.5, 2.7.6
using brew switch ansible 2.7.5, I can switch back to an old version, but this works only for versions that have been already installed.
2) With versioned formulas, you can choose an old version of MySQL with brew install mysql#5.5 or brew install mysql#5.6. This works because there is the corresponding formulas: mysql#5.5.rb and mysql#5.6.rb.
3) You can use the git history to go back to any version of a formula, read this question/answer for details: Install older version of Pandoc (<2) using homebrew
The full text of the error
The most important line, to my untrained eye, seems to be: ld: warning: The i386 architecture is deprecated for macOS (remove from the Xcode build setting: ARCHS)
But am I really supposed to modify the Xcode build settings?
I am trying $ sudo gem install rails.
My specs:
macOS High Sierra 10.13.6
Xcode version: 10.0 (10A255)
Ruby version: 2.3.7p456
Gem version: 2.7.8
Recommendations I've found so far:
1) Install xcode command line tools. They are installed.
2) bundle config build.nokogiri --use-system-libraries.
/\ I've read that I should not do this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
As #anothermh mentioned, you shouldn't use system ruby. I'd mention further that you don't want to, and shouldn't need to, run sudo to install gems.
Use a ruby version manager such as asdf (my recommended), rvm (probably one of the most popular), or rbenv (also a solid choice).
I'd also recommend, if you haven't done it already, that you grab homebrew because you'll need a few dependencies. Highly recommend at least:
brew install gcc libxml2 readline
I've tried to bundle install and had issue like this. In my case upgrading rails from 4.2.5. to 4.2.9 fixed error. Maybe it will help someone to not lose time.
Is it possible to install multiple versions side-by-side with Homebrew?
I find myself in a situation needing sbt-0.7.x, sbt-0.10.x and sbt-0.11.0. I've installed both sbt-0.7.7 and sbt-0.10.1 manually at the moment to work around the issue (with sbt-0.11.0 being the latest 'sbt' from Homebrew).
Yeah. When you install a new version of a package, it keeps the old one. The symlinks in /usr/local/bin or wherever point to the latest version, but you can still call the binaries (or link to the libraries) in the older version.
brew list to see what's installed. You can look in package directories to see all the versions; or call brew list --versions to see all packages and all versions.
To easily switch between versions of formulae, you can use:
brew switch <formula> <version>
For example:
brew switch gradle 3.2.1
To list which versions you have installed try:
brew list --versions
or:
brew list <formula> --versions
If you want to get rid of older versions, just use:
brew cleanup
As of Homebrew 2.0.0, it would remove old packages automatically when brew upgrade is called. (https://brew.sh/2019/02/02/homebrew-2.0.0/). To opt-out of this behavior, set the environment variable: export HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_CLEANUP=1
