Install Linuxbrew on CentOS 6 without sudo

Building glibc 2.23 requires GCC 4.7 or later, and CentOS 6 provides GCC 4.4, so build GCC from source before building glibc.

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Linuxbrew/install/master/install.sh)"
PATH=$HOME/.linuxbrew/bin:$HOME/.linuxbrew/sbin:$PATH
HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1 HOMEBREW_BUILD_FROM_SOURCE=1 brew install gcc --without-glibc
HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1 brew install glibc
HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1 brew remove gcc
HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1 brew install gcc

Issues with old ruby or git

If you are getting syntax errors. Install the portable-ruby first.

brew vendor-install ruby

You might also see git errors complaining about error: unknown option `list'. In which case you'll need to cd to the brew directory and run the following command (this is a workaround. hopefully can fix this).

sed -i s/--list/-l/ ./Library/Homebrew/cmd/update.sh

Generate locale

After above installation, there are only two default locales: C and POSIX. Use the following command to generate more locales:

localedef -v -c -i en_US -f UTF-8 en_US.UTF-8
