How to Install Homebrew on Debian-based Distros

Steps required to install Homebrew on MX Linux (and other Debian-based distros)

Steps

1. Update apt cache and optionally do a full upgrade

    apt update
    apt full-upgrade # optional, reboot if needed
   

2. Install build tools

    apt install build-essential procps curl file git
   

3. Install homebrew:

    /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
   

4. Set brew environment variables

    [ -d /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew ] && eval $(/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)
    
    # You most likely want to add the above line to your shell startup file as well.
   

5. Make brew doctor happy

    brew doctor
    
    # Ignore the warning about config scripts
   

6. Install gcc (as recommended by the installer script)

    brew install gcc
