I found the best and easiest way to install QGIS is brew cask
. There are too many bugs on osgeo4mac homebrew.
Installing Homebrew
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
Check the latest installation command at: https://brew.sh/
brew cask install qgis
Installing QGIS
Add the OSGeo tap:
brew tap osgeo/osgeo4mac
Install the latest version or the LTR version of QGIS:
brew install osgeo/osgeo4mac/qgis
brew install osgeo/osgeo4mac/qgis-ltr
Notice the installation comes with many linked packages (e.g. osgeo-netcdf, osgeo-hdf5) from osgeo tap, which might conflict with other native brew packages (e.g. netcdf, hdf5). These packages have to be unlinked before the installation.
