A new version of Homebrew was just released. Does this work better now?

Hmmm, sounds like the Maxima formula is not relocatable. We do our best to fool Homebrew into just blindly accepting that every bottle is relocatable, but in this case it...

Thanks for the reports guys, I've added the `--ignore-dependencies` flag to `rm()` so now this shouldn't be as much of a problem as before. A [new version of Homebrew](https://github.com/JuliaLang/METADATA.jl/pull/7460) containing...

Very interesting. This is probably because there is a residual mumps formula in the homebrew-julia tap. We will need to delete that before it will let you install mumps from...

Sorry, I meant `homebrew/juliadeps`, but it doesn't appear that it exists in there either. I just tried this locally, and `Homebrew.brew(`install dpo/openblas/mumps`)` failed for me. Are you certain it works...

Sounds to me like the `brew` executable doesn't have its executable bit set. Can you confirm?

- What version of `Homebrew.jl` do you have installed? What does `Pkg.status()` say? - What does `Homebrew.versioninfo()` say? - If you `Pkg.checkout("Homebrew")`, then run `Pkg.build()`, do the issues persist?

I think this must be an error with the construction of the `.app`. I assume that `Homebrew.jl` is pre-installed, and it's getting its permissions stripped during the `.app` construction process.

The `fontconfig` problem should be fixed by https://github.com/staticfloat/homebrew-juliadeps/commit/c351e7b12115df6d9b3678c28fc4ae0a6587677e. Please `Homebrew.update()` and try again, but I'm more interested in the `Cairo` build errors. Can you `Pkg.build("Cairo")` for me?

@aviks could you give me a little more detail? I haven't been able to reproduce any of these issues on my machines.
