Can you uninstall the old Appium first? This is some weird npm problem.

from appium-chromedriver.

Are you able to download http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/2.21/chromedriver_mac32.zip manually?

Downloading http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/2.21/chromedriver_mac32.zip manually is OK.
Help me，please.

Please note that these warnings are just used to help the Homebrew maintainers
with debugging if you file an issue. If everything you use Homebrew for is
working fine: please don't worry and just ignore them. Thanks!

Warning: "config" scripts exist outside your system or Homebrew directories.
./configure scripts often look for *-config scripts to determine if
software packages are installed, and what additional flags to use when
compiling and linking.

Having additional scripts in your path can confuse software installed via
Homebrew if the config script overrides a system or Homebrew provided
script of the same name. We found the following "config" scripts:
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python-config
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python2-config
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python2.7-config

Warning: Python is installed at /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework

Homebrew only supports building against the System-provided Python or a
brewed Python. In particular, Pythons installed to /Library can interfere
with other software installs.

Warning: Homebrew's sbin was not found in your PATH but you have installed
formulae that put executables in /usr/local/sbin.
Consider setting the PATH for example like so
echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/sbin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile

Warning: Your Xcode (8.0) is outdated.
Please update to Xcode 8.1 (or delete it).
Xcode can be updated from the App Store.

Warning: Broken symlinks were found. Remove them with brew prune:

This seems like something is mis-configured on your machine. Can you remove the symlink and try the install?

from appium-chromedriver.

How remove the symlink,please?

from appium-chromedriver.

When Officially released the Appium1.6.0.dmg？

It is ok that removing the broken symlinks with brew prune.
Then,install with npm install -g appium@beta ,i am getting following error,help me!

localhost:~ yongche$ brew prune
