Hi Ross, This is a new one on me. A bit of Googling later, I found a similar issue (for a different program) here: * https://github.com/Homebrew/legacy-homebrew/issues/45011 This suggests to me that after a system upgrade (have you recently upgraded to OSX Catalina?) you need to reinstall the gcc compilers, e.g. $ brew reinstall gcc I'll see if I can find anything else, but give this a try in the meantime and let us know if it resolves the issue!
