I am trying to specify the following command into a Brewfile for use in homebrew-bundle:
brew install --HEAD open-ocd
I can get a normal install to work if the Brewfile contains:
brew "open-ocd"
But I don't see any examples on how to properly specify --HEAD within a Brewfile.
Using brew dump I was able to determine that the correct Brewfile is:
brew "open-ocd", args: ["HEAD"]

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 have Paste installed and want to uninstall it, currently running macOS High Sierra.
I have tried using the $ brew uninstall Paste and it gets returned with Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/paste.
After that I used $ brew update of which everything is up-to-date.
So after that I used $ brew doctor which returned

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 remove extempore but I get the following:
$ brew uninstall extempore
Error: No available formula with the name "extempore-llvm"
Trying to uninstall extempore-llvm
$ brew uninstall extempore-llvm
Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/extempore-llvm
Adding --force does not do anything.
How do I remove this keg/formula completely? Brew can't uninstall/install/reinstall anything while this is an issue.
Remove /usr/local/Cellar/extempore-llvm manually, then execute brew prune.
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.
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.
