Can't install the latest openssl using homebrew
See original GitHub issueI have tried the following commands to run a new openssl installation (btw. I run the latest macOS 10.12.3):
brew update brew install openssl
Unfortunately i got this warning: “Warning: openssl is a keg-only and another version is linked to opt. Use brew install --force
if you want to install this version”
Thereupon I tried the follwing command as recommended: “brew install --force”
This time I got an error: “Error: Invalid usage: This command requires a formula argument”.
I just wanted to use .Net Core for macOS 😕 I used this tutorial for installing openssl-> https://www.microsoft.com/net/core#macos

You have to uninstall openssl first
brew uninstall openssl
. Make sure you unlink it firstbrew unlink openssl
though. If it complains that it’s a dependency for wget so it shouldn’t be uninstalled, usebrew uninstall --ignore-dependencies openssl
to get around it. Just reinstall openssl directly after you uninstall it.The idea is to run
brew install --force openssl
. You’re missing the last argument. You can also usebrew unlink openssl
before installing newer versions if you’ve already installed an older version using homebrew.
