linuxbrew path conflict with openssl

[kaykhan]

I am on Ubuntu 22.04 and i appear to be having some conflicts with linuxbrew. (see prisma/prisma#14356)

echo $PATH

/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin:/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/sbin:/home/kay/.local/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin:/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/sbin:/home/kay/.local/bin:/home/kay/.gvm/bin:/home/kay/.pyenv/shims:/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/Cellar/pyenv-virtualenv/1.1.5/shims:/home/kay/.pyenv/bin:/home/kay/.nvm/versions/node/v16.16.0/bin:/home/kay/bin:/usr/local/bin:/home/kay/.cargo/bin:/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin:/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/sbin:/home/kay/.local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:/snap/bin

1. Should usr/bin come before linuxbrew, if so how do i cleanup my path. My assumption is that it should because it fixes my issue with prisma (see the above link)

cat ~/.profile

Most users have use-cases which require having Homebrew's bin directory come before /usr/bin in their PATH.

Since you have the opposite requirement, just replace the line

eval "$(/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)"

with

export PATH="${PATH}:/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin"

Most users have use-cases which require having Homebrew's bin directory come before /usr/bin in their PATH.

Which is the opposite of what im considering right? Im wondering if its normal to have /usr/bin before homebrew#s bin directory. Because i have a conflict where brew's opensslv1 is not working on another project, but openssl3 (default ubuntu) is working. But if homebrew bin directory is first, it will = ssl v1.

[kaykhan]

And actually if change /usr/bin to be first, it breaks a lot of other things i depend on with brew. So i guess i need some way to switch between openssl 1 and openssl3 in brew?

[carlocab]

You can try to do

brew install openssl@3
brew unlink [email protected]
brew link --force openssl@3

But this may break things you've already installed with brew that rely on [email protected]. We plan to migrate formulae to depend on openssl@3 instead, but this will take a bit of time.

This worked for me @carlocab ! Thank you!!
