Have problems installing imagemagick in particular with brew link libtiff - imagemagick

Basically I am trying to install imagemagick using brew and got the following error.
[~]$ brew install imagemagick
==> Installing imagemagick dependency: libtiff
==> Downloading http://download.osgeo.org/libtiff/tiff-4.0.1.tar.gz

==> make install
Error: The linking step did not complete successfully
The formula built, but is not symlinked into /usr/local
You can try again using `brew link libtiff'
==> Summary
/usr/local/Cellar/libtiff/4.0.1: 239 files, 3.7M, built in 42 seconds
Error: You must `brew link libtiff' before little-cms can be installed
[~]$ brew link libtiff
Linking /usr/local/Cellar/libtiff/4.0.1...
Error: Could not symlink file: /usr/local/Cellar/libtiff/4.0.1/share/man/man3/TIFFWriteDirectory.3tiff
Target /usr/local/share/man/man3/TIFFWriteDirectory.3tiff already exists. You may need to delete it.
Everytime I remove one, I get the error message asking me to remove another file. I have already removed like 20 of those files and I am not sure how many more are there. Is there a easier way of doing this?
Appreciate any advice.

Try this...
> brew link --overwrite libtiff

brew cannot install go#1.13 while brew search shows it

I am seeing on my mac the the following weird situation
$ brew search go#1.13
==> Formulae
go#1.13
and
$ brew install go#1.13
Error: go#1.13: unknown keyword: because
Also the error message is weird (it doesn't seem to complete the sentence.) I can brew install go#1.14 without any problem.
Please help provide some clues. Thank you.
That looks like your brew is not up to date. Can you run brew update to ensure everything is up to date before running brew install go#1.13? That would probably solve your issue.
Here is my installation test:
$ brew install go#1.13

go#1.13 is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local,
because this is an alternate version of another formula.

Refusing to link macOS-provided software: libiconv

In an effort to follow the steps posted here to get nokogiri working, I seem unable to link iconv properly.
When I run the command
brew link libiconv
I receive the following error:
Warning: Refusing to link macOS-provided software: libiconv
If you need to have libiconv first in your PATH run:
echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/libiconv/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile
For compilers to find libiconv you may need to set:
export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/libiconv/lib"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/libiconv/include"
I've added the above paths to my bash profile, reloaded the terminal, restarted the terminal and even tried restarting the computer as well but the error still persists. I've also tried reinstalling libiconv but to no avail (see output below).

libiconv is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local,

parallel can cause all kinds of trouble.

In the post link given by you, linking libiconv is unneeded. Cause only the real installation location is used but not the linked one. Just skip this link step and run following command,
# use the real installation location is not preferred, cause it will
# break you once the libiconv is upgraded to a new version
gem install nokogiri -- --with-iconv-dir=/usr/local/Cellar/libiconv/1.16
# you'd better pass the dir "/usr/local/opt/libiconv",
# which serves as a link to the real installation location.
gem install nokogiri -- --with-iconv-dir=/usr/local/opt/libiconv

Homebrew cannot link libpng trying to install gdal

I'm trying to install gdal via homebrew so I can start working with topojson, but I keep getting this error and I'm not sure how to resolve it?
k-6177:Cellar k$ brew install gdal
==> Installing dependencies for gdal: libpng, giflib, libtiff, lzlib, proj, libgeotiff, geos, sqlite, freexl, libxml2, json-c, liblwgeom, libspatialite
Error: Cannot link libpng
Another version is already linked: /usr/local/Cellar/libpng/1.6.16
Looks like I just needed to change some permissions. I used the following command:
sudo chown -R $(whoami):admin /usr/local
I did brew unlink libpng (or any other "already linked" package).

gfortran error while installing using homebrew

Any help with this problem which I faced while trying gfortran using homebrew. Thank you very much in advance.
bash-3.2$ brew install gfortran
Warning: gfortran-4.8.0 already installed, it's just not linked
bash-3.2$ brew link gfortran
Linking /usr/local/Cellar/gfortran/4.8.0... Warning: Could not link gfortran. Unlinking...
Error: Could not symlink file: /usr/local/Cellar/gfortran/4.8.0/share/gcc-4.8.0/python
/libstdcxx/v6/printers.py
Target /usr/local/share/gcc-4.8.0/python/libstdcxx/v6/printers.py already exists.
You may need to delete it.
To force the link and delete this file, do:
brew link --overwrite formula_name
To list all files that would be deleted:
brew link --overwrite --dry-run formula_name
bash-3.2$
This looks like another GCC 4.8 installation, either from Homebrew or elsewhere, is conflicting with the gfortran install. GFortran is based on GCC so they can collide.
The gcc48 Homebrew formula looks like it has an undocumented conflict with gfortran. Both want to symlink /usr/local/share/gcc-4.8.0. I was able to reproduce your error with brew tap homebrew/versions; brew install gcc48; brew install gfortran
Head on over to the Homebrew issue tracker on GitHub and report this conflict as a bug.
As a workaround, if you don't need that GCC 4.8.0, either brew unlink gcc48 (if it's from homebrew) or uninstall it, and then try the gfortran install again.
UPDATE: Looks like the Homebrew folks are already aware of this issue. There is a fix for it included in this pull request (#19382).

Installing GDAL with Homebrew Error

I'm currently working through Let's make a map and I'm having difficulty installing GDAL. Here's the console output:
brew doctor
Your system is raring to brew.
Toms-MacBook-Pro:~ tomstove$ brew install gdal

Error: Download failed: http://sqlite.org/2013/sqlite-autoconf-3071600.tar.gz
I'm on a mac running Mountain Lion so sqlite should already be installed. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,

http://sqlite.org/ doesn't support resume downloading.
Go to
cd /Library/Caches/Homebrew
or if you configurated other Location:
brew --cache
And delete all incomplete downloaded sqlite files (like rm sqlite*).
And then try
brew install sqlite
I had the same problem and was able to install by updating homebrew.
brew update
If you are have trouble running brew update, you probably need to fetch origin:
