The suggested installation script expects curl, but this is not available by default on OSX.\r\n\r\nLooking around on how to get this installed I keep finding instructions on how to do it with MacPorts. I would like to install homebrew instead of MacPorts.\r\n\r\nIt would be a nice addition to the install guide to state the requirements needed to install homebrew and some links on how to install them.\r\n\r\nThat being said. What is the \"recommended\" way to get curl and ruby installed to install homebrew?","html_url":"https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/issues/8619","title":"Installation assumptions","number":8619,"id":2260177,"created_at":"2011-11-16T19:00:15Z"},"action":"opened"}
