Fix installation instructions #43

Closed emyller closed 1 year ago

emyller commented 1 year ago

It seems that installing a package named "hummingbird" will actually download another software:

❯ brew info hummingbird
==> hummingbird: 1.2.1
https://airvpn.org/hummingbird
/opt/homebrew/Caskroom/hummingbird/3.3.0 (125B)
From: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/blob/HEAD/Casks/hummingbird.rb
==> Name
Hummingbird
==> Description
OpenVPN 3 client
==> Artifacts
hummingbird-macos-arm64-1.2.1/hummingbird (Binary)
==> Analytics
install: 0 (30 days), 33 (90 days), 205 (365 days)

Updating the brew install command instructions to use the full path (including the tap) seems to fix the issue.

Ah interesting, thanks for the fix!

@finestructure Since the ambiguity was introduced, this happens when running a brew upgrade. I would assume installing the package with its full name would fix it but I was wrong. Not sure how to keep the right Hummingbird instead of Eddie's.
