Homebrew postinstall fails on Big Sur

[neckro]

I'm getting this trying to install on Big Sur (Intel). Not sure what exactly is failing here.

$ brew postinstall --debug mediamicroservices/mm/mm

Running updatingplist manually doesn't show any output but it does return error code 1 which may be why it's blowing up.

[neckro]

Changing exit to exit 0 in the updatingplist script seems to fix this.

Changing exit to exit 0 in the updatingplist script seems to fix this.

Indeed, this is a known bug.
