Brew link fails on mpd-installaion

Hey there,

I’m trying to brew install mopidy on Mac OS X mavericks. I follow the instructions on the mopdy-installation guide but there occurs an error:

==> Installing mopidy dependency: homebrew/versions/gst-plugins-bad010
==> Downloading http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/src/gst-plugins-bad/gst-plugins-bad-0.10.23.tar.bz2
Already downloaded: /Library/Caches/Homebrew/gst-plugins-bad010-0.10.23.tar.bz2
==> ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/gst-plugins-bad010/0.10.23 --disable-sdl
==> make
==> make install
Error: The `brew link` step did not complete successfully
The formula built, but is not symlinked into /usr/local
Could not symlink share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled
Target /usr/local/share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled
is a symlink belonging to gsettings-desktop-schemas. You can unlink it:
  brew unlink gsettings-desktop-schemas

To force the link and overwrite all conflicting files:
  brew link --overwrite gst-plugins-bad010

To list all files that would be deleted:
  brew link --overwrite --dry-run gst-plugins-bad010

Possible conflicting files are:
/usr/local/share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled -> /usr/local/Cellar/gsettings-desktop-schemas/3.14.0/share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled
==> Summary
🍺  /usr/local/Cellar/gst-plugins-bad010/0.10.23: 184 files, 9,1M, built in 60 seconds

I have no idea what this means. Does anybody know this issue and can help me how to deal with it?
Thanks a lot!

Like the error message from brew says, the gst-plugins-bad010 formula tries to overwrite a file that already has been installed by the formula gsettings-desktop-schemas.

Most probably, you can simply let it overwrite it:

Then run the brew install mopidy/mopidy/mopidy command again.

thank you. It’s working now :slight_smile:
