brew rmtree does not consider multiple versions of dependency packages

[dberzano]

Hello, I have just run into this:

$> brew rm hevea
Uninstalling /usr/local/Cellar/hevea/2.14...

$> brew rmtree hevea
Uninstalling /usr/local/Cellar/hevea/2.09...
Found lingering dependencies
objective-caml
Removing dependency objective-caml...
Uninstalling /usr/local/Cellar/objective-caml/4.01.0_1...
No dependencies left on system for objective-caml.

$> brew rmtree hevea
Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/hevea

Found lingering dependencies
objective-caml
Removing dependency objective-caml...
Uninstalling /usr/local/Cellar/objective-caml/4.01.0...
No dependencies left on system for objective-caml.

$> brew rmtree hevea
Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/hevea

No dependencies left on system for hevea.

It looks that if a package comes in different versions, only the latest is removed.

(p.s. thanks for creating this tool!)

@dberzano Thanks for the report. This is definitely an oversight that I will fix as soon as I can.

@dberzano If you run brew update && brew upgrade brew-rmtree let me know if it solves your issue. I ran your scenario and it now works for me.

brew rmtree hevea

Uninstalling /usr/local/Cellar/hevea/2.16...
Found lingering dependencies
objective-caml
Removing dependency objective-caml...
Removing: /usr/local/Cellar/objective-caml/4.00.1...
Uninstalling /usr/local/Cellar/objective-caml/4.01.0_1...
No dependencies left on system for objective-caml.
