Description of issue

53 was closed, but the underlying problem remains. Several fonts still do not install:

e.g. font-jetbrains-mono:

ε ➪ brew install --force font-jetbrains-mono
==> Auto-updating Homebrew...
Adjust how often this is run with HOMEBREW_AUTO_UPDATE_SECS or disable with
HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE. Hide these hints with HOMEBREW_NO_ENV_HINTS (see `man brew`).

==> Installing font-jetbrains-mono from homebrew/linux-fonts
Error: An exception occurred within a child process:
  TypeError: Parameter 'sources': Expected type T.any(Pathname, Resource, Resource::Partial, String, T::Array[T.any(Pathname, String)], T::Hash[T.any(Pathname, String), String]), got type NilClass

See also font-stix. I got some other fonts to work, e.g. font-juliamono. Looking at the formula the main difference is the font-juliamono has no verified:

class FontJuliamono < Formula
  desc "Juliamono font"
  homepage "https://github.com/cormullion/juliamono"
  url "https://github.com/cormullion/juliamono/releases/download/v0.056/JuliaMono.tar.gz"

but jetbrains-mono and stix do:

class FontJetbrainsMono < Formula
  desc "Jetbrains mono font"
  homepage "https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/mono"
  url "https://github.com/JetBrains/JetBrainsMono/releases/download/v2.304/JetBrainsMono-2.304.zip",
       verified: "github.com/JetBrains/JetBrainsMono/"

Output of your command with --verbose --debug

ε ◎ brew install --force --verbose --debug font-stix

Note comment https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-linux-fonts/issues/53#issuecomment-2143360688 from @SMillerDev seems still relelvant here.

[iandol]

Here are the paths for a working vs. non-working font:

(share/"fonts").install Dir.glob("./**/JuliaMono-BlackItalic.ttf")[0]

(share/"fonts").install Dir.glob("./**/fonts/ttf/JetBrainsMonoNL-BoldItalic.ttf")[0]

[SMillerDev]

the main difference is the font-juliamono has no verified

Verified is just metadata, that has nothing to do with this issue. The issue is what is mentioned in the comment:

Casks do not move into the first directory like formula do, so the path is off. Someone will need to adjust the formula generation to drop the first directory from the glob if the name is the same as the current directory.

[iandol]

OK, thanks for the confirmation.
