Brew on image help

I've been following the work to put brew directly on the image and wanted to try it out. It looks like it's been merged into Bazzite and I'm on the latest image, but I don't have the brew command available. I see that. It looks like brew should've been created under /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew, but I don't have that. Am I missing a step?

Solution

To fix this. Make a directory called .linuxbrew and then move everything underneath that directory

The Bazzite github build takes about 30 minutes to build and update the image. I think that you were probably too quick to try it. Try another and see if that works

and look for brew

It looks like homebrew is now baked into the Bazzite image (as of the main branch 2 hours ago)

I might be misreading the commits though

AAru did you install brew via the ujust?

I haven’t run this yet because I thought brew was supposed to be installed by default with the latest update. But I do still see this option in ujust so I’m a little confused.

I checked for new bazzite updates again and I’m still on the same version. I’m pretty sure I’m on the latest update because I have the new systemd brew services.

If you update you should have an update for today

after testing the new image, it looks like it creates the /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew, but it looks like you still need to run , it appears that brew just has some additional preconfig. I'll need to double check in my VM

Everything should be in place. With bash and fish the brew shellenv command will be run for interactive shells.

Can you post what is your PATH? And which shell you are using

Do I actually need to run I didn't think that was needed and haven't run it yet.

M2•5/17/24, 12:13 PM

Is the the file /etc/profile.d/brew.sh in place?

ArchesF5OP•5/17/24, 12:14 PM

Yup. It is looking for though. I don't have that nested directory

M2•5/17/24, 12:14 PM

Oh I see.

ArchesF5OP•5/17/24, 12:17 PM

Yup that did the trick

ArchesF5OP•5/17/24, 12:18 PM

Installed a package too. Everything looks good

M2•5/17/24, 12:20 PM

I think I know how this happened.

MM2 I think I know how this happened.

Yup there is a bug, fresh install on a vm and .linuxbrew missing, and works if I move the content to the .linuxbrew folder
