Description of issue

Today I run brew upgrade and it says:

You can try again using:
  brew postinstall gcc

But when I run brew postinstall --debug gcc, it still fails:

I think this is the patchelf bug. See Homebrew/homebrew-core#126054. There should be a workaround there too.

I completely delete the Homebrew, and install it again. Then it will not install gcc@11, but still says:

==> Pouring gcc-13.1.0.x86_64_linux.bottle.tar.gz
Warning: The post-install step did not complete successfully
You can try again using:
  brew postinstall gcc

And running gcc-13 always causes crash:

$gcc-13
Segmentation fault

$gcc-13 --version
Segmentation fault

Yes, reinstalling Homebrew won't help. Please read Homebrew/homebrew-core#126054.

But I have no patchelf installed:

brew does not use the patchelf formula. It uses patchelf.rb.

The workaround is mentioned here: Homebrew/homebrew-core#126054 (comment)

I delete the whole Homebrew, and newly install the Homebrew from the very beginning.
But at the step "installing gcc", it still fails to postinstall:

Are you able to still use gcc-13 regardless?

No, I can not. The gcc-13 directly crashes when I run it.

Could you paste the output of:

brew postinstall gcc --verbose
brew postinstall gcc --verbose --debug
/usr/bin/cc --version

I can replicate an issue with brew postinstall gcc that happens because the postinstall needs a c compiler from the first place. But your error seems different. I hope the output of the 3 commands above helps me reproduce the error in a podman container so I can more easily tweak around and boil down the issue.

I don’t know if the patchelf bug is still relevant or was fixed.

Does your system satisfy all the requirements in this page? https://docs.brew.sh/Homebrew-on-Linux

I’d try running the yum commands if you haven’t already.
