This issue has yet been reported in linuxbrew. Any idea?

Thank you for reporting. To my knowledge this has not been reported to Linuxbrew. On which Linux distribution are you working? (We use Debian 10.1.)

[JiangXL]

Sorry for my typo, I exactly want to tell you this has not been reported to Linuxbrew.
In fact, we are working on Debian 9 Variation(Deepin Linux 15.11), which uses latest Debian 9 source.

Now, I can mount/write just using ltopers bash script and few mm scripts directly without linuxbrew env.

Thanks for this additional information. Brew is meant to be an easy way to install the scripts. Of course, you can install also without using it. Yet I’ll test it again.

I just set-up computers for an LTO training on the 1st February, but could not reproduce on Debian 10.2.

I didn't test it in Debian 10. If it just didn't work at Debian 9, I will choose to upgrade Debian in the furture.

Is this still an issue or can it be closed?
