/usr/local/Cellar query #8
Description
Hello!
As per README.md:
By default behaviour brew pkg include all package kegs located in /usr/local/Cellar/packagename.
I've built some pkgs with brew pkg that don't seem to function as I'd expect, with errors indicating that the required files at /usr/local/Cellar do not exist. For example, I built a package for the the document converter Pandoc as follows:
[me@host] ~ > brew install pandoc
==> Downloading https://homebrew.bintray.com/bottles/pandoc-1.17.2.el_capitan.bottle.tar.gz
Already downloaded: /Users/me/Library/Caches/Homebrew/pandoc-1.17.2.el_capitan.bottle.tar.gz
==> Pouring pandoc-1.17.2.el_capitan.bottle.tar.gz
Error: The `brew link` step did not complete successfully
The formula built, but is not symlinked into /usr/local
Could not symlink etc/bash_completion.d/pandoc
Target /usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/pandoc
already exists. You may want to remove it:
rm '/usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/pandoc'
To force the link and overwrite all conflicting files:
brew link --overwrite pandoc
To list all files that would be deleted:
brew link --overwrite --dry-run pandoc
Possible conflicting files are:
/usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/pandoc
/usr/local/bin/pandoc

My understanding is that brew pkg includes the package kegs from /usr/local/Cellar for the given formula, but this doesn't seem to be the case in my testing. Have I done something wrong with my initial packaging?
Thanks,
Andrew
