How to Install Homebrew on Manjaro

Steps required to install Homebrew on Manjaro Linux

Steps

1. Install base-devel

    pacman -Syu # CAUTION: this updates the whole system
    pacman -S base-devel
   

2. Run the installer script

    sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Linuxbrew/install/master/install.sh)"
   

3. Set brew environment variables

    [ -d /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew ] && eval $(/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)
    
    # You most likely want to add the above line to your shell startup file as well.
   

4. Make brew doctor happy

    brew doctor
    
    # In case it complains about the linked directory
    mkdir -p /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/var/homebrew/linked
    chown -R $(whoami) /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/var/homebrew/linked
    
    # Ignore the warning about python being symlinked to python3. This is the default behavior in ArchLinux/Manjaro and chaning the symlink is dangerous.
   

5. Vendor-install ruby

    brew vendor-install ruby
   

6. Install gcc (as recommended by the installer script)

    brew install gcc
