/bin/sh: /Users/user/.rvm/usr/ssl/man/man3/hmac.3: Too many levels of symbolic links

All you need is to exec this

rm -rf /usr/local/ssl/man;

After this run the install command again.

Happy Coding ^_^

/bin/sh: /Users/user/.rvm/usr/ssl/man/man3/hmac.3: Too many levels of symbolic links

if rm -rf /usr/local/ssl/man didn't work, look at the path from message. i could be different

in my case it was /Users/username/.rvm/usr/ssl/man/man3/hmac.3

so i should rm -rf /Users/username/.rvm/usr/ssl/man/man3/hmac.3

@drilla rm -rf will remove the folder and everything in it, recursively
