brew install svn failed

[huahang]

---

Libraries have been installed in:
/home/huahang/.linuxbrew/Cellar/subversion/1.8.1/lib

If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR'
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:

• add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable
  during execution
• add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable
  during linking
• use the `-Wl,-rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag
• have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf'

See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for

more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.

I don't see the actual error message in the text that you've included, which is the standard boiler-plate text for a keg-only install.

[mistydemeo]

Can you provide the full logs in a gist?

svn is not keg-only - @sjackman, do you know why that would print?

[sjackman]

I believe if symlinking fails, that message will print.

[sjackman]

For example, if SVN is already installed in /usr/local outside of Homebrew.

[jacknagel]

That text comes from libtool, not Homebrew.

[sjackman]

Ah, thanks for clearing that up, Jack.

For brew install svn at first I get this error

[sjackman]

Dependencies that are included with Mac OS X are not listed as dependencies in Homebrew formulae. It'd be great if they were, but we'd need to sort with the mxcl/homebrew folk how to best go about that. In the mean time, I suggest installing APR with your native package manager (apt-get or yum).

Cheers,
Shaun

Hi,

I ran into exactly the same issue originally reported.
I didn't see anything related to keg-only in the formular.
And the library and binary do not existing in Cellar directory.

The gist log is here https://gist.github.com/anonymous/dff6ff729d44d1a85534

Thanks,

[sjackman]
