Homebrew-core: brew cask install caskroom/cask/brew-cask does not work

Created on 7 Apr 2016  路  2Comments  路  Source: Homebrew/homebrew-core

I try ''brew install caskroom/cask/brew-cask'' on my OS X 11.04 system. I meet the following problem. I have tried brew update and brew doctor, no warning and no error show up. But I still get the same issue. What is the problem?

brew cask install caskroom/cask/brew-cask
Error: No available Cask for caskroom/cask/brew-cask
Error: nothing to install

It used to be brew install caskroom/cask/brew-cask, so brew rather than brew cask in the initial step. These days that's no longer necessary, as per this README notation.

Just execute brew cask and you'll have it installed now, and it'll update automatically with every brew update.
