Homebrew: Error running 'requirements_osx_brew_libs_install gcc@6' on Mac10.13.6


I can't install ruby 3.0.0 through my powershell, when I try rvm install 3.0.0 I receive a beautiful error:

Error running 'requirements_osx_brew_libs_install gcc@6',
please read /Users/ben/.rvm/log/1673079096_ruby-3.0.0/package_install_gcc@6.log
Requirements installation failed with status: 1.

I feel like I've tried everything to resolve this problem but without success.

-This is my gcc version:

Configured with: --prefix=/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/4.2.1 Apple LLVM version 10.0.0 (clang-1000.10.44.4) Target: x86_64-apple-darwin17.7.0 Thread model: posix InstalledDir: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin

-which ruby:

And when I run rvm install 3.0.0 this is what I receive:

So, if I run brew install gcc@6, I receive:

I'm in despair, I don't know what I'm supposed to do.


Solution

  • The warning is clearly stating that macOS 10.13 is too old, so the best thing is to upgrade the OS - there were several failed attempts to build Ruby 3.0 - see https://github.com/rvm/rvm/issues/5055

    Also, GCC below version 10 are deprecated - see homebrew issue https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/110163

    Though, you can first try switching from rvm to rbenv - seems like someone get it done with rbenv on High Sierra - https://github.com/rvm/rvm/issues/5012#issuecomment-811858777
