使用自制程序问题安装Node.js.

Question

I'm trying to install Node.js with homebrew on OS X but I'm running into a few issues and I'm not quite sure how to fix them. When I run brew doctor I get the following output:

Warning: Python is installed at /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework

Homebrew only supports building against the System-provided Python or a
brewed Python. In particular, Pythons installed to /Library can interfere
with other software installs.

Warning: You have unlinked kegs in your Cellar
Leaving kegs unlinked can lead to build-trouble and cause brews that depend on
those kegs to fail to run properly once built. Run `brew link` on these:

    node

Warning: You have uncommitted modifications to Homebrew
If this a surprise to you, then you should stash these modifications.
Stashing returns Homebrew to a pristine state but can be undone
should you later need to do so for some reason.
    cd /usr/local/Library && git stash && git clean -d -f
Error: Homebrew doesn't know what compiler versions ship with your version
of Xcode (5.1). Please `brew update` and if that doesn't help, file
an issue with the output of `brew --config`:
  https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/issues

Note that we only track stable, released versions of Xcode.

Thanks!

I tried to run brew link node and got the following message:

Linking /usr/local/Cellar/node/0.10.26... Warning: Could not link node. Unlinking...

Error: Could not symlink file: /usr/local/Cellar/node/0.10.26/lib/dtrace/node.d
Target /usr/local/lib/dtrace/node.d already exists. You may need to delete it.
To force the link and overwrite all other conflicting files, do:
  brew link --overwrite formula_name

To list all files that would be deleted:
  brew link --overwrite --dry-run formula_name

So then I tried to run brew link --overwrite node and got the following error:

Linking /usr/local/Cellar/node/0.10.26... Warning: Could not link node. Unlinking...

Error: Permission denied - /usr/local/lib/dtrace/node.d

I am now stuck and not really sure what to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

我通过运行解决了这个问题：

sudo chown -R `whoami` /usr/local

Answer 2

To resolve the permission issue try

sudo brew link --overwrite node

Note that unless you have specific reasons to install node using homebrew, I would recommend to just go to http://nodejs.org/ , download the Mac OS installer and let it do everything for you.

Answer 3

I'm a little late to the party but I'm having the same issue- I think I'm onto something though.

Check your permissions on /usr/local/lib/dtrace/node.d by running ls -al /usr/local/lib/dtrace/node.d . If the owner is someone other than your username, fix that by running

sudo chown -R $USER:staff /usr/local/lib/dtrace/node.d

This should give you the permissions you need to proceed. After that, I hit a few more directories that had owners listed as nobody (I actually ended up chowning all of /usr/local/Cellar, I'll wait for comments to see how bad of an idea that was).
