Hi,
 
I am new in homebrew. I have configured homebrew in linux. it is working
like (brew --version and brew --cache)
 
Please let me know,  how to build the nginx package with brew formula.
 
   a, I have run the command brew create nginx and I have typed the formula.
 
   b, While run the command, I am getting error.
 
root@slack64:/tmp/brew/homebrew# brew install nginx

File already downloaded and cached to /root/.homebrew/cache

Homebrew does not support Linux (only Mac OS X). There was some preliminary work
done on a Linux port[1], but I don't think there has been much
activity recently.
