## The problem I’m having

To install dbt, I went down the Homebrew route. I’m currently on dbt-snowflake@1.3.0. I need to upgrade to the latest version of dbt-snowflake@1.6. However, I’m not able to find it as an available version to download.

## The context of why I’m trying to do this

I need to run 1.6 in dbt cloud, and I need the same version locally.

## What I’ve already tried

First I tried downloading it by running `brew install dbt-snowflake@1.6.0`. It said No available formula with that name.

Then I’ve tried running `brew search dbt-snowflake`. I get this output:

Formulae  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake ✔  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.0.1  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.2.0-rc1  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.3.0-rc2  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.4.0  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.4.4  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.5.2  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.0.0  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.1.0  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.2.1  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.3.1  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.4.1

dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.0.0-b1  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.1.0-rc1  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.3.0 ✔  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.3.2  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.4.2  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.5.0-rc1  
snowflake  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.0.0-rc2  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.2.0  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.3.0-b1  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.3.3  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.4.3  
dbt-labs/dbt/dbt-snowflake@1.5.1

I don’t see any 1.6 versions available.

Then I tried running  
`brew untap dbt-labs/dbt --force`  
`brew tap dbt-labs/dbt`  
`brew search dbt-snowflake`

and I still can’t see the version I need.

Has anyone successfully installed dbt-snowflake@1.6 using Homebrew that could help me?

Thanks!

Nevermind, this is known.

I didn’t realize support for homebrew would end at 1.6.
