@andersjanmyr seems like you're missing gcc (probably related to xcode):

ld: library not found for -lgcc_s.10.4

start with a clean brew setup to ensure all dependencies are installed?

[thibaultcha]

My guess is that you are missing the Xcode tools or that they are outdated. This is a related issue on Homebrew: Homebrew/legacy-homebrew#40653

[ahmadnassri]

there's also an issue with homebrew and openssl libs (if you're on 10.11) Homebrew/legacy-homebrew#40519

basically nobody should ever upgrade OSX for at least a year of being out :)

because #AppleLogic!

[andersjanmyr]

I have both Xcode and xcode command line tools installed. and I'm using OSX 10.10.5.
The package installer works fine, but I would prefer using brew.

Which version of Xcode? I'm sorry but this issue is not related to the kong homebrew formula. I think you will get more help on Homebrew itself.

[andersjanmyr]

I had Xcode version 6 installed and upgraded it to 7.0.1, but it still did not work.
I don't think there is anything wrong with my brew installation since I have been using it for
a long time without issues.

Anyway, it's not a big deal, I can settle for the package install instead.

I may try to do a clean install of brew and then I let you know how it goes.
Thanks anyway for your time.

[thibaultcha]

I don't think it is strictly related to homebrew either but more probably to something deeper like your libraries and gcc installation. Or some incompatibility between then. You see not to be the only one with the issue when homebrew is using gcc.

Many homebrew formula have a prebuilt binary, or do not compile software the same way, hence why you probably have never encountered it before.

I ran the install again today and everything went fine for me.

[thibaultcha]

Actually I just thought: what happens if you try to compile openresty yourself? Since it is the failing step here

[andersjanmyr]

@thibaultcha You are right openresty also fails, I'll try a re-install.
