➜ brew doctor
Your system is ready to brew.

Verification

• My brew doctor output says Your system is ready to brew. and am still able to reproduce my issue.
• I ran brew update and am still able to reproduce my issue.
• I have resolved all warnings from brew doctor and that did not fix my problem.
• I searched for recent similar issues at https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues?q=is%3Aissue and found no duplicates.

What were you trying to do (and why)?

Tried to follow the jujutsu VCS tutorial yesterday, got a dyld error about it being unable to locate the correct libgit2 version. It seems that it explicitly searches for libgit2@1.7, but the formula depends on libgit2 as of this writing:

➜ brew info jj
==> jj: stable 0.19.0 (bottled), HEAD
Git-compatible distributed version control system

build-error: 14 (30 days)

When I list libgit2's lib folder, it shows me the versioned dylib for libgit2 v1.8.1:

~
➜ ls /opt/homebrew/opt/libgit2/lib
libgit2.1.8.1.dylib libgit2.1.8.dylib   libgit2.a           libgit2.dylib       pkgconfig

So this seems to be a version mismatch of libgit2 for the jj formula.

What happened (include all command output)?

What did you expect to happen?

jj just printing me the version.

Sam thing happens for bat after the recent update

Similar issue with gping too.

Had to run brew missing to find the correct missing dependencies, which turned out to be libgit2@1.7. Installing that fixed the error.

Just for further information, brew doctor suggested this too, but that did not fix it for me. From what I can see, the reason here is the dyld only considers brew --prefix libgit2 and /opt/homebrew/Cellar/libgit2/1.8.1/ as a library search path, but not brew --prefix libgit2@1.7.

[darthShadow]

Yeah, I think jj just got missed in the libgit2 bump recently: #166767

It looks like the latest version still dependends on 1.7.2 (https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/blob/74c275ed10a7b45e1638fb00e53e29bc6286e8ba/Cargo.lock#L1828), so an explicity dependency to that version should have been added just like bat or gping.

[carlocab]

jj needs to be switched to libgit2@1.7 and a revision bump -- please feel free to open a PR doing so.

The others (e.g. bat and gping) should be fixed by

brew install libgit2@1.7

To be clear: manually installing libgit2@1.7 is, of course, a workaround. We hope to have it fixed properly soon.

[cho-m]

In case of jj and git-interactive-rebase-tool, it looks like dependent tests were skipped in PR. I don't think we had any CI labels to do this so not sure what happened there. May need to watch out in case this is a bug in our CI workflow.

I think cargo-outdated likely needs to be switched to libgit2@1.7, is anything needed besides that switch in a PR?

Just a revision bump as well, but that should be it!

[carlocab]

for impatient:

brew install libgit2@1.7

ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/libgit2@1.7/1.7.2/lib/libgit2.1.7.2.dylib  /usr/local/opt/libgit2/lib/libgit2.1.7.dylib

There shouldn't be any need to do this. You just need to brew update && brew upgrade.
