Re: [Mac-access]: trying to reinstall home brew

2015-01-13 Thread Esther
Hi Sarah,

OK, one more
suggestion. I think you want to update rather than uninstalling Homebrew. I'm 
going to assume that you installed the command line tools from Xcode 6 (as part 
of the general set up requirements for Homebrew), and that you went through the 
earlier step of changing the sym link from 1.8 to Current.  

Since Homebrew expects to see the 1.8 folder try creating it with this step:

sudo mkdir -p /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/bin

then create a sym link:

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ruby 
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/bin/ruby

Now try to running through the four command line steps I gave in the earlier 
post.

If that doesn't work, you may have to edit the /usr/local/Library/brew.rb file 
and change the reference to the Library string in the first line of the file 
from 1.8 to Current.

I'm hoping that the trick if creating the folders will be enough, because in 
general the steps for forcing the update if the simple commands don't work will 
involve additional git commands.  Also, we're now getting into specific 
Yosemite file structures that I can't check, because I'm not upgraded.

Re: [Mac-access]: trying to reinstall home brew

2015-01-13 Thread Sarah k Alawami
I already tried the 4 command lines. it won't let me update. It says that home 
brew can only be installed on Leppard and higher. I'm running Yosemite.  and 
this is after creating the simlink as instructed in the article. Is there a way 
to completely remove it and start over as I'm thinking something broke in a big 
way, and I probably caused it. 

I looked on google and the github page but the dev was not that responsive and 
just said look at the FAQ which is not helping in this case.

Re: [Mac-access]: trying to reinstall home brew

2015-01-13 Thread Esther
Hi Sarah, 
I haven't been following what you're trying to do, but the likely source of 
your problem is that Yosemite changed both the default version of Ruby (2.0 
instead of 1.8.7) and its location, while Homebrew has sym links that are coded 
to expect the older version of Ruby.  Since it can't find the interpreter, it's 
failing. 

I can't tell from what you've described what you are trying to do.  If it is a 
matter of fixing the sym links and you're running Yosemite and with a version 
of  Homebrew that was already updated and working under Mavericks then you can 
type the following 4 lines in Terminal to update Homebrew for Yosemite:

cd /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions
sudo ln -s Current 1.8
brew update
sudo rm 1.8

You basically change your directory so you can create a sym link to 1.8 for the 
current version of Ruby, run brew update, remove your sym link.  Source URL of 
the fix is:

http://ryantvenge.com/2014/09/ruby-homebrea-yosemite/

HTH

Re: [Mac-access]: trying to reinstall home brew

Even trying to install apps is failing.  I read the  github page but the author

I take the last email back. it still failed with the same error and I followed 
that link to the letter. All appeared to have worked, but I guess not. I tried 
installing the software I needed, but still no go. I still came up with the 
following error.

/usr/local/bin/brew: /usr/local/Library/brew.rb:

Re: [Mac-access]: trying to reinstall home brew

2015-01-13 Thread Esther
Hi Sarah,

It's possible that the update to Homebrew did not go through.  If you are on 
Yosemite, 10.10 was supposed to install both Ruby 2.0 as a default, while 
Mavericks shipped with Ruby 1.8.7 to support some legacy software.  That's one 
of the reasons I'm confused about whether you were starting from a 
configuration that had a working version of Homebrew (under Mavericks) that 
you're trying to update.

I'm not upgraded to Yosemite, and I'm running the last version of Mavericks.  
When I use Command-Shift-G in Finder and type or paste in:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions
I have folder entries for both 1.8 and 2.0 (with modification dates Oct. 30, 
2013 and Oct. 17, 2014).  Opening either of those folders includes a Ruby 
executable.  Can you check whether your 1.8 folder has contents?

If it doesn't, maybe you can move this over from a Mavericks backup?

The other possible way to do the update might be to issue commands in Terminal 
like:

cd /usr/local/Library
sudo git pull origin master

But I'm not sure how that will play out for you.

Sorry not to have more suggestions.

Cheers,

Esther

Re: [Mac-access]: trying to reinstall home brew

2015-01-13 Thread Sarah k Alawami
All I have is 2.0 actually.  I don't remember installing this, but apparently I 
did at some point.  Maybe it was today, but again I don't remember as it threw 
errors. I do have the command line tools installed though. I thought I 
uninstalled home brew 2 years ago when I did not need it which is why I'm 
confused right now.  Can I rm -R  that whole dir and make it go by by to 
redownload and reinstall version 2? or will that brake things even  more then 
they are?  Even mac ports is sort of broken under Yosemite in my looking 
around. I don't have a osx 10.9 anything anymore. I cleaned that set up up in 
October of last year.
