How can I force homebrew to recompile?
HomebrewHomebrew Problem Overview
I'm trying to install wxWidgets on Mac OS X 10.9. It's already installed, but I'm having the problem described here. Someone suggested to add ENV.append_to_cflags "-stdlib=libc++"
. I did, but I'm not able to recompile the code.
$ brew install wxmac
Warning: wxmac-3.0.0 already installed
$ brew edit wxmac
=> ok, modifications done, now I want to recompile and reinstall
$ brew uninstall wxmac

Homebrew Solutions
Solution 1 - Homebrew
Homebrew is installing wxmac in bottle form (a pre-compiled binary of wxmac). To build from source, add the --build-from-source
flag when calling brew install
:
$ brew install --build-from-source wxmac
Solution 2 - Homebrew
To rebuild all installed FORMULAE from source:
$ brew list | xargs brew reinstall --build-from-source
