Formulae require at least a URL

[tommasongr]

Hi there,

I'm opening this because a user of our Homebrew client (brewerx.app) has reported an issue with the repository.

We discovered that the vagrant formula is not providing the required url for OSs besides Linux. Causing Homebrew to spin up this issue:

Error: formulae require at least a URL

If you weren't aware, please consider to fix the malformed files.

Thanks

Hi, just chiming in that this is still an issue, and has some knock-on effects... for example, it breaks integrations with brewfile synchronization tools like homebrew-file.

this is pretty bad it breaks brew search core functionality like brew earch --eval-all --desc <term>

We would appreciate if you could spare a couple of minutes to look at this.

in the meantime for those who want a managed installation this is a good alternative https://github.com/asdf-community/asdf-hashicorp

If you are running into an error after running

brew tap hashicorp/tap
brew install hashicorp/tap/vagrant

In the vagrant.rb that I found the url pointed to a linux image. If you need a quick installation of vagrant just download the dmg file from https://releases.hashicorp.com/vagrant/2.4.3/ or update the url correctly.

@hkandie no I only installed vault, but I get the error mentioning vagrant above every time I run brew search --eval-all
