DistroAV Brew cask has been deprecated on the official homebrew repository This new way allows you to leverage the ease-of-use of brew for DistroAV without interruption
This Homebrew tap provides the DistroAV tap. The cask is updated when a new release is published.
For now there is only one cask distroav. but if we keep running into challenge on the long run, we could add some of the dependencies here too.
brew install --cask distroav/distroav/distroav
and
brew reinstall --cask distroav/distroav/distroav
Yes! This is 3 times the same name, but that's the way.
Or brew tap distroav/distroav and then brew reinstall distroav.
brew help, man brew or check Homebrew's documentation.
Context : You have installed DistroAV from the former brew install distroav command
Now you want to install the new cask via brew install distroav/distroav/distroav but your get the warning message :
Warning: Not upgrading distroav, the latest version is already installed
Try again with reinstall instead of install
`brew reinstall --cask distroav/distroav/distroav`
You shoud also see two distoav Casks with brew search distroav the old deprecated and the one managed from DistroAV repo.
Install DistroAV easily from Command line on MacOS.
