From d1dfe3f8d1407f7fdef579422b576f9ee94881e5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Max Nordlund Date: Sun, 15 Dec 2019 18:36:14 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Remove Homebrew install instuctions It has been removed [1][] due to Erlang 17 dependency, which only supports EOL OpenSSL. The formulae also had numerous issues building, which most likely needs upstream changes (aka here) before being submitted again. An alternative would be an official tap [2][].
