Confused by cleanup

[carrete]

$ brew bundle --global cleanup
Would uninstall formulae:
awk            isl            libmpc         gcc            gdk-pixbuf     pkgconf        jpeg           libgccjit      librsvg        texinfo        tree-sitter    zlib
Run `brew bundle cleanup --force` to make these changes.
$ brew uninstall gcc
Error: Refusing to uninstall /usr/local/Cellar/gcc/14.2.0_1
because it is required by emacs-plus@30 and libgccjit, which are currently installed.
You can override this and force removal with:
  brew uninstall --ignore-dependencies gcc

Why does cleanup think gcc should be uninstalled if it's required by other packages?

Also, some of these packages can be uninstalled, like awk. Perhaps packages should be uninstalled individually and then only report those which really couldn't be uninstalled?

Thanks!

It's unclear from your output. What OS are you on? What's in your Brewfile?

Also, some of these packages can be uninstalled, like awk. Perhaps packages should be uninstalled individually and then only report those which really couldn't be uninstalled?

That's an option but not sure it would fix your problem?

macOS Ventura, Intel

Correct, it wouldn't solve my problem, but at least those packages that could be removed would be removed

@carrete Is that Brewfile handcrafted or from brew bundle dump? If you brew bundle dump it: does it include gcc or not?

[carrete]

Handcrafted. brew bundle dump does not include gcc.

Not sure why this would be happening I'm afraid. Will leave open for now in case anyone else has ideas.
