I just installed Homebrew in macOS Mojave. When trying:
$ brew install --fresh imagemagick --with-perl
there appears an output explanatory text about the usage of brew formulas, finishing by:
Error: invalid option: --fresh
Similarly, $ brew install imagemagick --with-perl gives out the forementioned text finishing by: Error: invalid option: --with-perl
(On the other hand, $ brew install imagemagick works, but there fails the perl interface, so that I wished to install it with the perl option as above).
There is no option --fresh to the brew command. If you want to reinstall a package, you do:
brew uninstall PACKAGE
brew install PACKAGE
All packages in homebrew-core no longer have any options - it was too onerous on the maintainers. Now all packages contain a core, broad set of options and that is what you get.
If you want to see how your ImageMagick is configured, use:
magick identify -list configure

I tried installing yum through brew install command. but it is not working with the message below. What is the problem? I can not find any good materials.
$ brew install "yum"
Error: No available formula with the name "yum"
==> Searching for similarly named formulae...
Error: No similarly named formulae found.
==> Searching taps...
Error: No formulae found in taps.
yum is a package manager for Red Hat Linux. It will not work on macOS. brew is a package manager for macOS
So instead of trying to install yum to install another piece of software, you might want to try to install this software using brew directly. But beware: the package names might not be the same. Use brew search to search for packages in brew, or maybe, even better, try and find specific instructions for macOS for the software you're trying to install.
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
Searching formulae...
Searching taps...
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.
RGBDSLAM install is asking for devil
$ rosdep install rgbdslam
ERROR: the following packages/stacks could not have their rosdep keys resolved
to system dependencies:
rgbdslam: No definition of [libdevil-dev] for OS [osx]
But when I try to install devil I'm getting this:
$ brew install devil
Error: devil cannot be built with any available compilers.
To install this formula, you may need to:
brew install gcc
$ brew install gcc
Warning: gcc-5.3.0 already installed
How can I get around this?
Note: I have xcode installed accompanied with the command line tools.
** EDIT libdevIL installed **
for some reason gcc 5 doesn't register when devIL is looking for gcc so I had to downgrade to 4.9.
$ brew rm gcc // removes 5
$ brew install gcc49 // installs 4.9
$ brew install devil // works
$ brew install gcc // two gcc installed? this might be interesting
rgbdslam still isn't detecting libdevIL though, not sure what the deal is.
Here's some helpful notes from answers.ros.org
I set siftgpu_disable_devil = 0 in SiftGPU/makefile and
set(ENV{SIFT_GPU_MODE} 0) in CMakeLists.txt with no avail. I'm
still seeing rgbdslam: No definition of [libdevil-dev] for OS [osx]
Commenting devIL out in package.xml put me a little further but
into some seemingly OSX specific issues, trying to resolve those via
github. Will respond here once I have a solution. Thanks for your
assistance.
I installed ImageMagick using
$ sudo port install ImageMagick
However, when I run a basic command in a new terminal window, I get an error
$ convert logo.gif
-bash: convert: command not found
Why can't I run ImageMagick commands?
I've added ImageMagick to my path. See below for a bash profile:
#~/.bash_profile
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$MAGICK_HOME/lib/"
export PATH="$MAGICK_HOME/bin:$PATH"
export MAGICK_HOME="$HOME/ImageMagick-6.8.9"
Note, I removed the above from my bash profile when I applied my solution.
I uninstalled macports and installed homebrew instead. Then I installed ImageMagick with homebrew and it worked just fine.
I needed to use the command: brew install imagemagick --build-from-source. The regular command gave me a different error
Is it possible to run in a verbose mode where it doesn't actually install the package, but just details from where and how it will be install the package?
You can run brew outdated to see a list of outdated packages that will be upgraded when running brew upgrade.
The closest you'll find is to show the dependencies of the package you're trying to install:
$ brew deps ruby
Will list the packages of ruby. You can then use:
$ brew list
to see which packages you have installed. From these two commands, you will be able to tell which packages will be installed by brew install ruby
I've used gentoo linux quite a bit in the past, and their portage system has a nice 'pretend' option for installing packages, the closest I've found for brew is:
brew list (package name)
brew list ruby gives me:

/usr/local/Cellar/ruby/1.9.2-p0/bin/testrb

But I'm guessing you're looking for more info than this?
The brew install --dry-run feature was recently added.
brew install --dry-run vim
==> Would install 1 formula:
vim
==> Would install 5 dependencies for vim:
lua berkeley-db perl libyaml ruby
