Hello, Yes, I have tried that. I did it again , here are the error I get
$brew link open-babel Linking /usr/local/Cellar/open-babel/2.4.1... Error: Could not symlink bin/babel Target /usr/local/bin/babel already exists. You may want to remove it: rm '/usr/local/bin/babel' To force the link and overwrite all conflicting files: brew link --overwrite open-babel To list all files that would be deleted: brew link --overwrite --dry-run open-babel Then as you also said and it is mentioned above , I did the following $ brew link --overwrite open-babel Linking /usr/local/Cellar/open-babel/2.4.1... Error: Could not symlink include/inchi/inchi_api.h /usr/local/include/inchi is not writable. I thought maybe works for the second time :-D, so I restart the terminal and I did $ brew link --overwrite openbabel Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/openbabel Thanks and sorry for trouble Cheers, Mo On Tue, Nov 29, 2016 at 10:57 AM, Fredrik Wallner <fred...@wallner.nu> wrote: > The error message says that you should run "brew link open-babel".
