Homebrew doesn't work on snow leopard

700 views Asked by At

I have a fresh installation of OsX 10.6.8 Yesterday I installed XCode 3.x and then homebrew.

brew doctor << was ok
brew update << updated ok
brew install python << gave an error similar to this one:


==> ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/readline/6.2.4 --mandir=/usr/local/Ce
checking for gcc... llvm-gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name... 
configure: error: in `/private/tmp/readline-lGgV/readline-6.2':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.

I thought was a problem due to my old XCode, so I uninstalled it and then loaded GCC-10.6.pkg but the error was the same.

I thought that also osx-gcc could be outdate so I managed to find a XCode 4.2 and I installed it, but the error doesn't change

I found out that there is no "Command Line Tools for Xcode" for osX 10.6.8 so now I'm out of options. There is a newer version of XCode (4.3.2) that is compatible with 10.6.8 but I wasn't able to get it, and sincerely, now I don't think that that could be the problem.

So, now, I'm out of options. I can't upgrade to Lion, because my laptop doesn't support it. The sad thing is that yesterday I decided to format my hd and reinstall OsX just to have a new, fresh, clean installation of homebrew!!!!!

Please.....help!!!!
