I'm trying to install Homebrew on my Mac so I can use PPSSPP, but I received a load of problems before finishing installation. How do I fix the unexpected things I have? Somebody please help.

Delete all unexpected files and run brew doctor again.

If everything is ok run then brew update.

Beware that if you have installed another package manager using the same location, this can break things.
