Please raise this issue with the Homebrew team. There is nothing I can do from this end.

You can download macFUSE from https://osxfuse.github.io.

Hello, experiencing the same issue as well. Any workaround for this?

[sashabeep]

The same issue here, @jackeyxiang can you provide the link to brew issue?

Homebrew/homebrew-core#77932

Is there some alternative way to install ntfs3g? Currently all tutorials refers to: brew install ntfs-3g and it's not working :(

Looks like ntfs and mtp could not been installed because of some "political" reasons in brew. So i dunno what is the purpose of this project

If you check the linked homebrew-core issue someone offers a workaround.

@bfleischer Could I suggest creating a homebrew tap repository containing at least a formula for ntfs-3g, and then updating the wiki documentation to indicate that said tap should be added first? Or just updating the documentation so it works in the meantime using this tap that has ntfs-3g as ntfs-3g-mac https://github.com/gromgit/homebrew-fuse

Something like this in the wiki:

Install NTFS-3G from Homebrew by opening a Terminal and entering the following commands:
brew tap gromgit/homebrew-fuse
brew install ntfs-3g-mac

with the tap repo being replaced by e.g osxfuse/homebrew-tap if you don't want to rely on the third party workaround.

@alyssadev I'm fine with third-party workarounds. I don't have the time to maintain a tap. The Wiki page is editable. Feel free to add the required information.

This worked for me, but first I had to run brew install --cask macfuse

So all in all

brew tap gromgit/homebrew-fuse
brew install --cask macfuse
brew install ntfs-3g-mac
