Winbrew

An experimental fork of Homebrew for Windows.

Installation

export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
  • If necessary, add to your .profile:
#!/bin/sh.exe
if [ -f ${HOME}/.bashrc ]
then
  . ${HOME}/.bashrc
fi
  • Close and re-open your shell, or just `source ~/.bashrc
  • brew install $WHATEVER_YOU_WANT

Important notice

MSYS 1.0.18 has introduced a regression where some parallel builds will just hang. The workaround is to downgrade to 1.0.17 for the time being.

  • Exit all MSYS processes (close your MinGW shells, etc.)
  • Open cmd.exe (Windows standard shell)
  • Change directory to your MSYS prefix/bin directory
  • mingw-get upgrade msys-core-bin=1.0.17-1

For more information, refer to the bug report
