The executables are called `go-ethereum-cli-VERSION` and `go-ethereum-gui-VERSION`. This naming pattern is chosen to allow most informative names and parallel installation of multiple ethereum implementations.\n\nTo get the latest edge build, do:\n```\nbrew install eth-go --HEAD\nbrew unlink go-ethereum-cli\nbrew reinstall go-ethereum-cli --HEAD\nbrew unlink go-ethereum-gui\nbrew reinstall go-ethereum-gui --HEAD\n```\n\nThese will install the edge clients built from the develop branch. The executables are called `go-ethereum-cli-HEAD` and `go-ethereum-gui-HEAD`. \nThe GUI uses assets (qt resources) at run-time, so these are also installed under `/usr/local/share/go-ethereum-gui/assets`. The GUI client should be started with this asset path specified:\n\n    go-ethereum-gui-0.3.1 -asset-path /usr/local/share/go-ethereum-gui/assets\n\nNote:\n- you do need to explicitly install eth-go from HEAD too.\n- if you call unlink before install you can have parallel versions of the clients (i.e., both `go-ethereum-cli-HEAD` and `go-ethereum-cli-0.3.1`). These executables will be avaiable in `$(brew --cellar)/go-ethereum-cli/VERSION/bin`.\n- by calling reinstall instead of install you make sure the most recent version is installed even if you had installed from (a possibly earlier) HEAD before.\n- If you have not previously installed dependencies try to make sure homebrew does not compile dependencies from source (qt5 may take several hours): https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/wiki/FAQ#why-do-you-compile-everything. \n\n##eth-go only\n\nIf you only want to install eth-go:\n\n```\nbrew tap ethersphere/ethereum-go\nbrew install eth-go\n```\n\nTo get the latest edge build, do:\n```\nbrew install eth-go --HEAD\n```\n\n##Options\n\nSee `brew info go-ethereum-cli` and use `--verbose` and/or `--debug` to get more info while installing.\n\n##Troubleshooting\n\n* Make sure to update XCode (latest is 5.1) and the command line tools.\n* Run `brew update` and `brew upgrade`\n* Fix what the `brew doctor` says\n* Reinstall dependencies\n* Make changes to `/usr/local/Library/Taps/ethersphere/*.rb`\n* Reinstall with `brew reinstall go-ethereum-cli.rb` (send a pull request!)\n* Take a walk\n\nFor the record, the brewable dependencies are\n\n    brew install go mercurial gmp leveldb  # for eth-go and go-ethereum\n    brew install pkg-config qt5 # extra for go-ethereal GUI\n\n## Credits\n* https://github.com/zelig\n* https://github.com/caktux\n* https://github.com/obscuren\n\n##Source code and info\n* https://github.com/ethereum/eth-go\n* https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum\n* https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/wiki\n\n## C++ implementation \nThere is a separate homebrew tap for the C++ implementation of ethereum: https://github.com/caktux/homebrew-ethereum\nI hope it adopts the naming scheme.\n\n## Disclaimer\n\nThe ethereum project is in inception phase. All software and tools being developed are alpha.
