First thing I tried was installing over what I already have. It downloaded homebrew-core, homebrew-julia, then failed on brew update cutest with error:

Error: This command updates brew itself, and does not take formula names.
Use 'brew upgrade <formula>'.
=======================================[ ERROR: CUTEst ]=======================================

LoadError: failed process: Process(`/home/abel/.julia/v0.6/Linuxbrew/deps/usr/bin/brew update cutest`, ProcessExited(1)) [1]

===============================================================================================

I'll try a clean installation next.

Now it failed on the gsl installation.

That's strange. Mine installed quietly. I'll try to set it up on Travis in a branch. Thanks for testing.

[abelsiqueira]

Maybe gsl was installed from other source? sent from cell

==> Caveats
This formula is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /home/mgi.polymtl.ca/doorba/.julia/v0.6/Linuxbrew/deps/usr,
because this is an alternate version of another formula.

It worked for me after I installed patchelf using Linuxbrew.jl. My system's patchelf was not sufficient.

[dpo]

Yes, there are still a few problems to iron out. Also, Linuxbrew has some limitations. For instance, there's currently no support for 32-bit systems. Is that a problem?

[abelsiqueira]

I'm not sure if it would be a problem, and we can recommend installing CUTEst manually as a workaround.

[dpo]

Does Julia have a way to distinguish between 32 and 64-bit systems?

[dpo]

julia> Int == Int32
false

julia> Int == Int64
true

julia> Base.Sys.WORD_SIZE
64

[dpo]

Not necessary any more after #209.
