I'm trying to install Homebrew on my Mac so I can use PPSSPP, but I received a load of problems before finishing installation. How do I fix the unexpected things I have? Somebody please help.

I ran brew doctor and got a few warning messages that I think I know what actions to take to fix, but want to see if I'm on the right track. Here is the list of warnings I received:
Warning: /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig isn't writable.
This can happen if you "sudo make install" software that isn't managed by
by Homebrew. If a formula tries to write a file to this directory, the
install will fail during the link step.
You should probably `chown` /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
Warning: Some directories in /usr/local/share/man aren't writable.
This can happen if you "sudo make install" software that isn't managed
by Homebrew. If a brew tries to add locale information to one of these
directories, then the install will fail during the link step.

Warning: You have unlinked kegs in your Cellar
Leaving kegs unlinked can lead to build-trouble and cause brews that depend on
those kegs to fail to run properly once built. Run `brew link` on these:
libyaml
For the first case, should I run chown <user>/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
Warning: /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig isn't writable.
This can happen if you "sudo make install" software that isn't managed by

Finally run brew link libyaml?
Warning: You have unlinked kegs in your Cellar
Leaving kegs unlinked can lead to build-trouble and cause brews that depend on
those kegs to fail to run properly once built. Run `brew link` on these:
libyaml
To fix the permissions problems, you can chown -R your_username /usr/local to recursively change ownership of everything under /usr/local.
You should brew link libyaml.
The warnings about dylibs tell you that you have a Tcl/Tk library installed to /usr/local. If you know how it got there and you know you do not need it, you can uninstall it. If you don't know how it got there, you can rename its files so builds won't pick it up (and so you can put them back if you discover that something depends on them). It's probably fine to leave it in place unless and until something breaks in a Tk-related way; it's possible it will never cause you trouble.
I solved the issue by running sudo chown <user>/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig, sudo chown <user>/usr/local/share/man/mann.
Then I deleted the files recommended and ran brew link libyaml and everything was fine.

Warning: /usr/bin occurs before /usr/local/bin
This means that system-provided programs will be used instead of those
provided by Homebrew. The following tools exist at both paths:
2to3
pkg-config
Consider amending your PATH so that /usr/local/bin
occurs before /usr/bin in your PATH.
Warning: You have a non-Homebrew 'pkg-config' in your PATH:
/usr/bin/pkg-config => /Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/2.10.9/bin/pkg-config
This was most likely created by the Mono installer. `./configure` may
have problems finding brew-installed packages using this other pkg-config.
Do you think any of those could be the problem?
Thanks for your help!
EDIT:
I am running Lion.
Brew is up to date.
Well, I hit the same issue yesterday, and in my case the solution surprisingly resulted in a combination of uninstalling the Mono Framework following Uninstalling Mono on Mac OS X, removing all packages that placed unexpected dynlibs and .pc files (which in my case were fuse-related).
However, I did have the PATH set according to homebrew's wishes, amending /usr/local/bin to the PATH environment variable.
I'm very much a newbie when it comes to all this so forgive my incompetence.
When I run brew Doctor, I get the following. Can someone help?
[/usr/local]$ brew doctor
Error: Setting DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH can break dynamic linking.
You should probably unset it.
Error: Some keg-only formula are linked into the Cellar.
Linking a keg-only formula, such as gettext, into the cellar with
brew link f will cause other formulae to detect them during the
./configure step. This may cause problems when compiling those
other formulae.
Binaries provided by keg-only formulae may override system binaries
with other strange results.

This is asking you to unset your Dynamic Loading Library Path. You can do this by finding out where you set it and removing it. Most likely, you have a line in your ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile that looks like export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/some/path:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
You may wish to brew unlink these brews:
libxml2
When Brew links, it's creating a symlink to the installation. It's how you can have python2.6. python2.7 installed but python will run one of them.

I'm new to brew as well. When I first tried, I ended up with a laundry list of errors. Not all needed to be fixed for me to use brew as I needed it. In particular, I was able to ignore the
Unbrewed * were found in /usr/local/lib
messages that I was getting. I believe those are only a problem when your use of brew installed packages will interfere with ones you've installed before (in my case, it was NTFS-3g, not related to my future uses of brew).
