Estou tentando instalar o GDB via Homebrew no OSX Mavericks através do comando brew install homebrew/dupes/gdb . Esta mensagem de erro aparece durante a instalação:
gdb requires special privileges to access Mach ports.
You will need to codesign the binary. For instructions, see:

Error: The 'brew link' step did not complete successfully
The formula built, but is not symlinked into /usr/local
Could not symlink share/info/bfd.info
Target /usr/local/share/info/bfd.info
is a symlink belonging to binutils. You can unlink it:
brew unlink binutils
To force the link and overwrite all conflicting files:
brew link --overwrite gdb
To list all files that would be deleted:
brew link --overwrite --dry-run gdb
Possible conflicting files are:
/usr/local/share/info/bfd.info -> /usr/local/Cellar/binutils/2.24/share/info/bfd.info
/usr/local/share/info/configure.info -> /usr/local/Cellar/binutils/2.24/share/info/configure.info
==> Summary
A mensagem está perguntando se brew deve sobrescrever a documentação instalada do binutils com a documentação instalada do GDB, mas é seguro sobrescrevê-los. Geralmente, é seguro sobrescrever os syslinks em brew , se algo for quebrado, você poderá reinstalar o pacote com facilidade.
