"the_silver_searcher" resolving as "the-silver-searcher" #3

Open leoj3n opened 10 years ago

The generated Brewfile is saying:

install the-silver-searcher

Homebrew actually has the program listed as:

the_silver_searcher

I'm guessing this has to do with how you verify or normalize formulae?

seethroughdev commented 10 years ago

Hi @leoj3n . Yeah, that is unfortunate. The naming convention is typically dashes. I'll look into other options for deriving names. But since we're trying to normalize the data by hand. We're forced to make assumptions.

I'll see if I can come with something better.

Closing as a 'won't fix'.

Although this is a verifiable issue. Naming convention states to use dashes for spaces. Per: https://github.com/phinze/homebrew-cask/issues/365

leoj3n commented 10 years ago

That link doesn't really apply to this issue since this is a problem is in the Brewfile, not the Caskfile.

Unless Homebrew has the same convention?

seethroughdev commented 10 years ago

You're right, I had written this originally with homebrew-cask in mind. Homebrew has a different convention. Let me give this more thought then. Thanks for the heads up.
