I'm not a Homebrew expert, but probably MacTeX is considered by Homebrew a dependency of LilyPond itself. You should install LilyPond from [1] and then install Frescobaldi through Homebrew with `brew install frescobaldi --without-lilypond` (see [2] for details). @Marnen: can you confirm that `brew install frescobaldi` asks the user to manually install XQuartz and MacTeX? Maybe we should clarify this in [2]. Or maybe you could remove the dependency of Frescobaldi on LilyPond: after all, both the download page [3] and the install guide [2] advise to install a copy of LilyPond as a separate step; but this depends on what is usually done in Homebrew, so I won't push for this solution further. Best wishes.
