with debugging if you file an issue. If everything you use Homebrew for is

working fine: please don't worry or file an issue; just ignore this. 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 which 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:

  /home/uyavuz/e/anaconda3/bin/ncursesw6-config

  /home/uyavuz/e/anaconda3/bin/xslt-config

  /home/uyavuz/e/anaconda3/bin/python3.8-config

Warning: Your Homebrew's prefix is not /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew.

Some of Homebrew's bottles (binary packages) can only be used with the default

prefix (/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew).

You will encounter build failures with some formulae.

Please create pull requests instead of asking for help on Homebrew's GitHub,

Discourse, Twitter or IRC. You are responsible for resolving any issues you

experience while you are running this unsupported configuration.

@uguryavuz Can you try to run brew install portmidi and paste the full output here? Thanks!

[uguryavuz]

The output is under "Output of the given command" in the What happened section, but I'm pasting it again for good measure:

$ brew install portmidi

[MikeMcQuaid]

Sorry, I meant to type: brew install --debug portmidi

[iMichka]

We need to make this line mac-only: https://github.com/Homebrew/linuxbrew-core/blob/master/Formula/portmidi.rb#L19

[MikeMcQuaid]

@iMichka I'd like to fix this so it doesn't need to be. It shouldn't be failing IMO on Linux even without a guard.

This is the output with the debug flag:
