Install Linuxbrew

Very basic linuxbrew installer for general use-case

I've done this in a podman container as root with success; should work in a native environment

Not tried yet in regular user/sudo mode.

install-linuxbrew.sh

#!bash

set -euo pipefail

if [[ "$UID" != 0 ]]; then
    echo "You must be root to run this script"
    exit 1
fi

if which dnf; then
    dnf install git curl -y
    dnf group install "Development Tools"
elif which apt-get; then
    apt-get update && apt-get install git curl build-essential -y
else
    echo "Unsupported"
    exit 1
fi

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
echo 'eval "$(/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)"' >> /root/.bashrc

echo "Now ensure you have no backgrounded jobs (run 'jobs'), then run 'exec bash'"
echo "Install with 'brew install PACKAGES ...'"
echo "Search packages with 'brew search TERM' or 'brew search /REGEX/'"
echo "See package info with 'brew info PACKAGE'"

I'll also add some bits for getting it running under CentOS7 eventually, but that will require compiling a new git
