Problems with font-iosevka-comfy after upgrade

[kevin-stuart]

Verification

• I understand that if I ignore these instructions, my issue may be closed without review.
• I have retried my command with --force.
• I ran brew update-reset && brew update and retried my command.
• I ran brew doctor, fixed as many issues as possible and retried my command.
• I have checked the instructions for reporting bugs.
• I made doubly sure this is not a checksum does not match / SHA256 mismatch error (do not open an issue before trying to open a PR to fix first).

Description of issue

It seems brew upgrade --cask --greedy was a bad idea. The font font-iosevka-comfy seems to be broken. It says that the font cannot be found, and indeed, the directory /opt/homebrew/Caskroom/font-iosevka-comfy/latest/ is empty. How can I repair this?

Command that failed

brew install --cask font-iosevka-comfy

The installation is failing because the upstream repository has renamed some font files. The linked PR should resolve the issue, and you can upgrade the cask once it's merged.

[kevin-stuart]

This sounds great. One thought though: Why is it not an option to uninstall and reinstall? Why does it fail when the cask was removed? What remains? I would really like to understand how my system could be "corrupted"?

[khipp]

This is a general issue. All installations or upgrades are failing because the repository's folder structure changed with the release of version 2.0.0. version :latest will simply download a current snapshot of the repository and install the fonts from the extracted archive. However, since the paths listed in the cask are based on an older release, they can no longer be resolved, causing the installation error you are seeing.

[kevin-stuart]

Oh. So it's not just my machine where it is broken, but it is broken for everyone if I understand you correctily. Thanks for the explanation.
