Brew with osx 10.11

I have a lot of stuff installed via brew and there were several compatibility issues with installing programs on OS X 10.10. Now, it is possible to upgrade to 10.11 and I am wondering if it is safe. I mean, is it possible that some programs (valgrind for example) become unavailable after upgrading or I am confused and nothing can go wrong?

You shouldn’t have issues upgrading to OS X 10.11. The only thing new is the “System Integrity Protection” feature (SIP), for which you need to chown /usr/local to your user after the upgrade.

Homebrew has a doc describing how it works. Upgrade your system then run brew doctor. If it complains about permission issues run the following:

sudo chown -R $(whoami):admin /usr/local
