Error: No such file or directory - /Library/Caches/Homebrew/Casks

Make it: mkdir -p '/Library/Caches/Homebrew/Casks'.

[grimharrison]

this solution is only good until rm -rf $(brew --cache) is run. this cleanup function used to be able to withstand a cleaned up cache directory without failing as an error.

Seems like a bug to me. I'll take a look later this evening.

[dreamkidd]

i have the same probablem,how to fix this? mkdir in the /Library/Caches/Homebrew/Casks?

so i try this mkdir /Library/Caches/Homebrew/Casks and it is useful

[vitorgalvao]

@dreamkidd Yes, for now that should work.

[adidalal]

Looks like init in hbc.rb isn't being called for those that are having problems.

Adding HOMEBREW_CACHE_CASKS.mkpath unless HOMEBREW_CACHE_CASKS.exist? to cleanup.rb seems like it should do the trick, but it doesn't solve the root problem (ie. Why does this happen to some people), AFAIK.

Haven’t looked at it yet, but as soon as I read that, I immediately remembered there were some changes around those parts recently.

[kevinSuttle]

Same.

[muescha]

still the same "bug" for me

[kassadin]

still the same "bug" for me
and mkdir /Library/Caches/Homebrew/Casks is useful

[vitorgalvao]

Locking, since only noise is being added. You’re all still getting this bug because it hasn’t yet been fixed. That is why the issue is still open. Only after the issue has been reported as fixed and closed is it worthwhile noting if it still occurs. Until then, we know it still occurs.
