Does brew still require mangling OS permissions?

  No. This is answered on the Homebrew installation page: https://docs.brew.sh/Installation https://docs.brew.sh/Installation

    That page appears to very much describe that it does, in fact, still fuck your systems permissions… I’ll never install homebrew as long as the dev continues this amateur hour bullshit.

      Could you explain what you mean by this? I don’t see it on the page, and I’m not sure exactly what you mean by “OS permissions”.
