It has specifically indicated that TCL library, header, readlin library and readline headers are not found, I firstly thought this might be an issue of not installing the right version of it, but I have just confirmed that I am indeed on version 8.6.12:

(base) cooperdeng@Coopers-MacBook-Pro OpenROAD % tclsh <<< 'puts [info patchlevel]'
8.6.12

Kind of out of ideas on what to do and couldn't seem to find the same problem from other discussion posts, is there anything that I should do? Thanks a lot!

EDIT:
Also tried sourcing zshrc, still producing the same error.

I am also on the latest commit:

Why do you have HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALLED_DEPENDENTS_CHECK set ?

Warning: HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALLED_DEPENDENTS_CHECK is set: not checking for outdated
dependents or dependents with broken linkage!

When I unstall or-tools it lists and uninstalls all it's dependencies that are not used by other formulae.

brew uninstall or-tools

....

brew install or-tools installs all dependencies including clp for me.

[stefanottili]

For me all dependencies install without issues, despite the homebrew warning.

[CooperDeng]

weird, when i ran brew uninstall or-tools it only autoremoving 13 uneeded formulae:

brew uninstall or-tools

==> Autoremoving 13 unneeded formulae:

Uninstalling /opt/homebrew/Cellar/cbc/2.10.12... (158 files, 3.2MB)
...

Could this potentially be an issue? From what i can tell, clp and osi are both missing.

Also tried verifying if paths are indeed, well, in my PATH, and they seem to be:

echo $PATH | tr ':' '\n' | grep -E 'bison|flex|tcl-tk|or-tools'
/opt/homebrew/opt/bison/bin
/opt/homebrew/opt/flex/bin
/opt/homebrew/opt/tcl-tk/bin

Update:
Also have the paths in my .zshrc as well:

cat ~/.zshrc
export PATH="/opt/homebrew/bin"

export PATH="$PATH:$(brew --prefix bison)/bin:$(brew --prefix flex)/bin:$(brew --prefix tcl-tk)/bin"
export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="$(brew --prefix or-tools)"

export PATH="$PATH:/Users/cooperdeng/opt/anaconda3/bin"

export PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin"%

[stefanottili]

Well, since you were missing clap and osi, they can’t be uninstalled, no ?
The only relevant question is whether “brew install or-tools” as called from the dependency installer installs all its dependencies for you as it does for me.

[CooperDeng]

Doesn't seem to, no.

Just to be complete, here are my .zshrc settings.
I know I need the qt5 PATH to have etc/Build.sh find qmake.
I'm not sure whether the other three are relevant, just wanted to mention it.

CMake Error at src/gpl/CMakeLists.txt:44 (find_package):
  Found package configuration file:

    /opt/homebrew/opt/or-tools/lib/cmake/ortools/ortoolsConfig.cmake

  but it set ortools_FOUND to FALSE so package "ortools" is considered to be
  NOT FOUND.  Reason given by package:

  ortools could not be found because dependency Clp could not be found.

Sorry about the terminal dumping, I just am not sure which part I need to put for clearly identifying the issue.

I have noticed how that now my TCL library is pointing to the right thing, but CUDD library shows unfound, for some reason - could this be the potential indication that I need to link my library correctly?

Below is my .zshrc, I pretty much just copied and pasted it from what you had:

cat ~/.zshrc
export PATH=/opt/homebrew/opt/qt@5/bin:$PATH
export PATH=/opt/homebrew/opt/m4/bin:$PATH
export PATH=/opt/homebrew/opt/gnu-sed/libexec/gnubin:$PATH
export PATH=/opt/homebrew/opt/coreutils/libexec/gnubin:$PATH

export CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/flex/include"
export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$(brew --prefix or-tools)
export PATH="$(brew --prefix bison)/bin:$(brew --prefix flex)/bin:$(brew --prefix tcl-tk)/bin:${PATH}"%  

[stefanottili]

Weren't you able to fix the "ortools could not be found because dependency Clp could not be found." issue in the other discussion ?
Something is fishy with your homebrew setup. You might want to consider to give it a clean start.

[CooperDeng]

Yes, I thought about that and tried that as well:
(after reinstalling homebrew again and running DependencyInstaller.sh):

Installing tcl-tk@8:

brew install tcl-tk@8

==> Pouring [email protected]_sequoia.bottle.tar.gz
==> Caveats
The sqlite3_analyzer binary is in the `sqlite-analyzer` formula.

tcl-tk@8 is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /opt/homebrew,
because this is an alternate version of another formula.

If you need to have tcl-tk@8 first in your PATH, run:
  echo 'export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/tcl-tk@8/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc

For compilers to find tcl-tk@8 you may need to set:
  export LDFLAGS="-L/opt/homebrew/opt/tcl-tk@8/lib"
  export CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/homebrew/opt/tcl-tk@8/include"

After that, I tried linking tcl-tk@8 as a symbolic link from tcl-tk

Same old stuff. I am completely lost.

[Rajashekarhk]

i was facing a same issue install the package configuration from brew or use the following command

brew install pkgconf
