with your changes locally?Certain casks in the main cask repository may be invalid, for whatever reason. Without handling this exception, the user will get a cask-related exception while the formula of the same name is installed, and their installation will abort half-completed.
For example, the
fish
cask is currently broken and attempting tobrew cask info fish
will return an error. This also leads to attempts to install thefish
formula to fail like this:Fixes #5709.
