Please note we will close your issue without comment if you delete, do not read or do not fill out the issue checklist below and provide ALL the requested information. If you repeatedly fail to use the issue template, we will block you from ever submitting issues to Homebrew again.

Please always follow these steps:

  • [Yes ] Confirmed this is a problem with brew installing one, specific Homebrew/homebrew-core formula (not cask or tap) and not every time you run brew? If it's a general brew problem please file this issue at https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/issues/new. If it's a brew cask problem please file this issue at https://github.com/caskroom/homebrew-cask/issues/new. If it's a tap (e.g. Homebrew/homebrew-php) problem please file this issue at the tap.
  • [ Yes] Ran brew update and retried your prior step?
  • [Yes ] Ran brew doctor, fixed all issues and retried your prior step?
  • [Yes ] Ran brew gist-logs <formula> (where <formula> is the name of the formula that failed) and included the output link?
  • [Yes ] If brew gist-logs didn't work: ran brew config and brew doctor and included their output with your issue?

To help us debug your issue please explain:

  • What you were trying to do (and why)
    I'm trying to install man and mysql

Aha, okay. How about xcodebuild -version and ls -1 /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr?

Okay, I guess I'll just ask for the information I was trying to tease out of xcodebuild. Do you have Xcode installed? Also what does clang --version output? From the Clang: N/A I wondered if you had a partially-broken CLT installation or something, but doesn't look likely from the ls at least.

@DomT4 Does this mean that I have to install Xcode? Should I upgrade brew now?

No, it's not mandatory. I'm working off a hunch on this because I don't currently have a clean VM to test against but I've opened three PRs which I think should resolve your issue.

imagesnap: don't unconditionally call Xcode version (#20059)
a109e64 
The Xcode dependency doesn't nullify brew's ability to "read"
this formula and throw errors about Xcode version returning nil
which cannot be compared to `>=`, as least AFAIK.

Possibly another part of #20052.

Should be fixed now.
