I'm fine with homebrew not supporting whatever versions they choose.

I think GP's issue is forcing the use of homebrew for what seems like a rather trivial install. Just make the binary easily downloadable. It's not like you can't open the curled script to see what it fetches and do it yourself. It's just that having to jump through this useless hoop is annoying.

My mac is running the latest version of Tahoe but I never liked homebrew. You can bet I won't install it just for one app.

Apple controls these computers? I am using Linux myself; I compile from source though. To me it would seem super-strange to use an operating system where a private entity decides what it wants to do.

Apple only supports for 3 years
