tclstub issue while using homebrew to install graphviz

Question

Homebrew quits when trying to install graphviz,

CCLD   libtcldot_builtin.la
ld: library not found for -ltclstub8.6
clang: error: linker command failed with e         


        

Answer 1

Following the answer in here, it seems like

remove tcl-tk
brew -v install tcl-tk --with-tk
sudo ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/tcl-tk/8.6.0/lib/libtcl8.6.dylib /usr/local/lib/libtcl8.6.dylib
sudo ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/tcl-tk/8.6.0/lib/libtk8.6.dylib /usr/local/lib/libtk8.6.dylib
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libtclstub8.5.a /usr/lib/libtclstub8.6.a
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libtkstub8.5.a /usr/lib/libtkstub8.6.a
brew update
brew upgrade
brew -v reinstall graphviz

does the trick. The last two linking where done as suggested here. I hope this helps other folks.

Answer 2

The package seems to have moved recently:

brew install homebrew/dupes/tcl-tk
sudo ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/tcl-tk/8.6.0/lib/libtcl8.6.dylib /usr/local/lib/libtcl8.6.dylib
sudo ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/tcl-tk/8.6.0/lib/libtk8.6.dylib /usr/local/lib/libtk8.6.dylib
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libtclstub8.5.a /usr/lib/libtclstub8.6.a
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libtkstub8.5.a /usr/lib/libtkstub8.6.a
brew reinstall graphviz
