I'd like to install openCV to vectorize image, but there's a series error message regarding Xcode and Ruby.
First, I use terminal to install openCV, brew install opencv
.
Then, I got error message indicating that the system doesn't like my ruby version.
/usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Homebrew/brew.rb:12:in `<main>':
Homebrew must be run under Ruby 2.3! You're running 2.0.0. (RuntimeError)
So, I want to upgrade my ruby. I followed several update strategy from this post. First ruby upgrade trial: brew link --overwrite ruby
& brew unlink ruby && brew link ruby
and get
Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/ruby
Then second ruby upgrade trial: brew upgrade ruby
and see the following error message.
Error: Xcode alone is not sufficient on Sierra.
Install the Command Line Tools:
xcode-select --install
This error message means I need to install Xcode which I already install. So, I check my Xcode status with code-select -p
and get /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
which means I am fine.
I saw a comment regarding where you install python could be a big issue. Quote from the source:
If you see
/usr/local/bin/python3
then you are correctly using the Homebrew version of Python. If the output is instead/usr/bin/python3
then you are incorrectly using the system version of Python.
I check which python3
and get
/Users/******/anaconda3/bin/python3
Could this be the problem? How can I change system version to local?
Let me explain this myself so people won't make the same mistakes.
When I saw the last line of the error message
Error: Xcode alone is not sufficient on Sierra.
Install the Command Line Tools:
xcode-select --install
My thought was: I already have Xcode why the system ask me to "reinstall" it. However, thanks for @SamiKuhmonen @ Beartech @patrick kuang suggestion, I search a page (in Mandarin). xcode-select --install
does not reinstall the whole Xcode. It means install some missing command line tools which is required by installing Ruby.
