brew doctor output

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 or file an issue; just ignore this. Thanks!

Warning: Some installed formulae are deprecated or disabled.
You should find replacements for the following formulae:
  [email protected]
  pyyaml

Warning: You have the following deprecated, official taps tapped:
  Homebrew/homebrew-cask-versions
Untap them with `brew untap`.

Warning: You have unlinked kegs in your Cellar.
Leaving kegs unlinked can lead to build-trouble and cause formulae that depend on
those kegs to fail to run properly once built. Run `brew link` on these:
  uutils-coreutils

Verification

  • My "brew doctor output" above says Your system is ready to brew. and am still able to reproduce my issue.
  • I ran brew update twice and am still able to reproduce my issue.
  • This issue's title and/or description do not reference a single formula e.g. brew install wget. If they do, open an issue at https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues/new/choose instead.

What were you trying to do (and why)?

I wrote a formula for Slang here. When debugging the formula locally I noticed two things: if I asked for brew info slang when installed, I would get the information for s-lang; and importantly that if I install from a local ruby file like brew install --formula --head ./slang.rb, then after successfully running the install, it would say it will try to do brew cleanup slang, but this would fail by apparently trying to run cleanup on s-lang. When the formula is installed remote with brew install --formula --head thefanatr/slang/slang, this does not happen.

What happened (include all command output)?

brew install --head --formula ../homebrew-slang/slang.rb

Yea, installing formulae from paths is buggy and shouldn't be used. We should probably remove the ability to do that at some point.

To avoid this, put slang.rb in a tap (e.g. one created with brew tap-new) and then do brew install thefanatr/your-tap-name/slang. Note that a tap doesn't need to be a Git repo. It would be sufficient to do something like:

FORMULA_DIR="$(brew --repository)/Library/Taps/thefanatr/homebrew-your-tap-name/Formula/"
mkdir -p "$FORMULA_DIR"
mv ../homebrew-slang/slang.rb "$FORMULA_DIR"
brew install thefanatr/your-tap-name/slang

Agreed 👍🏻. Rescoping this issue to that.

…EVELOPER

If `HOMEBREW_DEVELOPER` is not set, then let's make
`HOMEBREW_FORBID_PACKAGES_FROM_PATHS` default to true.

I used a custom implementation here because we don't currently support
setting defaults for booleans. (See calls to `define_method` below.)

Closes #18371.
