Error: Running Homebrew as root is extremely dangerous. As Homebrew does not
drop privileges on installation you are giving all build scripts full access
to your system. As a result of the macOS sandbox not handling the root user
correctly HOMEBREW_NO_SANDBOX has been set so the sandbox will not be used. If
we have not merged a pull request to add privilege dropping by November 1st
2016 running Homebrew as root will be disabled. No Homebrew maintainers plan
to work on this functionality.
Error: Cowardly refusing to 'sudo brew install'
You can use brew with sudo, but only if the brew executable is owned by root.
However, this is both not recommended and completely unsupported so do so at
your own risk.
