Description of issue
On my Mac I have 2 accounts, both with admin rights. At this moment, the account for which
brew
was installed is abandoned, and I plan to delete it, leaving only one account. Currently, to install something, I use the commandsu [abandoned_user] -c 'brew [command]'
.The problem is that, as far as I know, if you delete
brew
, it will delete all installed applications along with it, as well as all their settings (I'm not 100% sure about this).Question: What's the best course of action for me in this situation? Should I change the owner for everything related to
brew
usingchown
, or should I deletebrew
and reinstall it for the second account?Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
