$ brew doctor
Please note that these warnings are just used to help the Homebrew maintainers
with debugging if you file an issue. If everything you use Homebrew for is
working fine: please don't worry and just ignore them. Thanks!

Warning: "config" scripts exist outside your system or Homebrew directories.
`./configure` scripts often look for *-config scripts to determine if
software packages are installed, and what additional flags to use when
compiling and linking.

Having additional scripts in your path can confuse software installed via
Homebrew if the config script overrides a system or Homebrew provided
script of the same name. We found the following "config" scripts:

I can't reproduce this. Please try export HOMEBREW_DEVELOPER=1; brew tap homebrew/bundle and brew tap --debug homebrew/bundle and paste the full output from both, thanks.

@MikeMcQuaid Just had a user on HBC with this same issue.

Found it, fixed, sorry for the pain.

Thanks!
