Issues

Bottle publishes failed but the commits are correct in the git history

Follow these steps to fix this issue:

• Download and extract the bottle artifact.
• brew pr-upload --no-commit in the bottle directory.

Alternative instructions using pr-pull:

• git reset --hard <SHA> in homebrew/core to reset to the commit before all the commits created by brew pr-pull.
• brew pr-pull <options> to upload the right bottles. Add the --warn-on-upload-failure switch if the bottles have been partially uploaded and you’re certain that the bottle checksums will match the checksums already present in the bottle do block of the formula.
• git reset --hard origin/master to return to the latest commit and discard the commits made by brew pr-pull.

ld: internal error: atom not found in symbolIndex(__ZN10SQInstance3GetERK11SQObjectPtrRS0_) for architecture x86_64

The exact atom may be different.

This can be caused by passing the obsolete -s option to the linker and can be fixed using inreplace.
