I try to get gcc via homebrew. There are certain weird problems so I delete the homebrew and reinstall it. Re-installation was successful and I follow this: What is the best/safest way to reinstall Homebrew?
Now, I simply type brew install gcc as usual then I got:
brew install gcc

which is recursive. My guess about this problem is maybe I am using too old version of OSX? (10.10 Yosemite).
Should I get latest version of OSX to get correct brew functionalities? If you have any thoughts, please let me know.
Thanks
