   Does it work to replace "gcc" with "gcc49" in the "brew install" line? I'm not an expect on homebrew, but it seems like you can select versions in this way.

   $ brew search gcc  
   gcc
   homebrew/versions/gcc43       homebrew/versions/gcc47       homebrew/versions/llvm-gcc28
   homebrew/versions/gcc44       homebrew/versions/gcc48       homebrew/dupes/apple-gcc42
   homebrew/versions/gcc45       homebrew/versions/gcc49
   homebrew/versions/gcc46       homebrew/versions/gcc5
   $ brew search gcc49
   homebrew/versions/gcc49
   

   I experimented with using gcc 5.1 with MacPorts, but didn't like the result, as many dependent libraries didn't come with gcc 5.1 variants, and MacPorts insisted on compiling a lot. 4.9 seems to work quite well for now.

   We no longer support OS X Yosemite.
