Homebrew on Linux - skyfaller - 01-17-2020

Hi folks, I tried to install Homebrew on Linux on my Pinebook Pro, and I got stuck at installing Portable Ruby. It says:

Code:
nelson@Debian-Desktop:~$ brew doctor
==> Downloading https://linuxbrew.bintray.com/bottles-portable-ruby/portable-ruby-2.6.3.aarch64_linux.bottle.tar.gz
Already downloaded: /home/nelson/.cache/Homebrew/portable-ruby-2.6.3.aarch64_linux.bottle.tar.gz
==> Pouring portable-ruby-2.6.3.aarch64_linux.bottle.tar.gz
Error: Failed to vendor ruby 2.6.3.
Error: Failed to install vendor Ruby.

I don't quite understand why it failed to install. I appear to have satisfied all of the listed requirements, including reasonable versions of GCC, Glibc, and the Linux kernel. It appears to be a bottle for the correct architecture.

I'm able to install an older version of Ruby through apt, but it appears to be too old for homebrew.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what is going wrong, or what I should try next? Do I need to compile Portable Ruby myself?
