This allows us to identify the formulae that need fixing and where more easily. - an `event` hit type with the `BuildError` event category and the Homebrew formula that failed to install, e.g. `wget` as the action and an event label e.g. `macOS 10.12` -- an `exception` hit type with the `exception` event category and exception description of the exception name, e.g. `FormulaUnavailableError` and whether the exception was fatal e.g. `1` You can also view all the information that is sent by Homebrew's analytics by setting `HOMEBREW_ANALYTICS_DEBUG=1` in your environment. Please note this will also stop any analytics from being sent. |
