## Check for common issues
* Run `brew update` (twice).
* Run `brew doctor` and fix all the warnings (**outdated Xcode/CLT and unbrewed dylibs are very likely to cause problems**).
-* Read through the [Common Issues](Common-Issues.md).
-* If you’re installing something Java-related, maybe you need to install Java (`brew cask install java`)?
* Check that **Command Line Tools for Xcode (CLT)** and/or **Xcode** are up to date.
* If things fail with permissions errors, check the permissions of `/usr/local`'s subdirectories. If you’re unsure what to do, you can `cd /usr/local && sudo chown -R $(whoami) bin etc include lib sbin share var Frameworks`.
