running “brew update && brew install imagemagick” on a xcode: 11.3.0 build is having the following issue when installing python as a dependency of imagemagick.
This has started just recently without changes on my end, and from what I can tell, imagemagick hasn’t had any changes related to this.
I’ve gone through some of the brew python documentation, but not sure exactly what the right next step is…
==> Pouring python-3.7.6.catalina.bottle.tar.gz
Error: The brew link step did not complete successfully
The formula built, but is not symlinked into /usr/local
Could not symlink Frameworks/Python.framework/Headers
Target /usr/local/Frameworks/Python.framework/Headers
is a symlink belonging to python@2. You can unlink it:
brew unlink python@2
To force the link and overwrite all conflicting files:
brew link --overwrite python
To list all files that would be deleted:
brew link --overwrite --dry-run python
Unversioned symlinks python, python-config, pip etc. pointing to python3, python3-config, pip3 etc., respectively, have been installed into
/usr/local/opt/python/libexec/bin
If you need Homebrew’s Python 2.7 run
brew install python@2
You can install Python packages with
pip3 install
They will install into the site-package directory
/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages
I’m additionally encountering this error on a mojave image (xcode 10.2.3)

Error: The `brew link` step did not complete successfully
The formula built, but is not symlinked into /usr/local
Could not symlink Frameworks/Python.framework/Headers
Target /usr/local/Frameworks/Python.framework/Headers is a symlink belonging to python@2. You can unlink it:
brew unlink python@2
To force the link and overwrite all conflicting files:

Possible conflicting files are:

/usr/local/Frameworks/Python.framework/Python -> /usr/local/Cellar/python@2/2.7.16/Frameworks/Python.framework/Python

==> /usr/local/Cellar/python/3.7.6_1/bin/python3 -s setup.py --no-user-cfg insta
==> Caveats
Python has been installed as
/usr/local/bin/python3
Unversioned symlinks `python`, `python-config`, `pip` etc. pointing to
`python3`, `python3-config`, `pip3` etc., respectively, have been installed into
/usr/local/opt/python/libexec/bin
If you need Homebrew's Python 2.7 run
brew install python@2
You can install Python packages with
pip3 install <package>
They will install into the site-package directory
/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages
See: https://docs.brew.sh/Homebrew-and-Python
after other dependencies are correctly installed, the process will end with the following line
Exited with code exit status 1
CircleCI received exit code 1
I’ve received the answer from support, and it works.
This appears to be a regression in the latest version of Homebrew itself as disabling the Homebrew updater appears to allow ImageMagick to install correctly.
