Install mysql via Homebrew taking many hours
Hello, I am installing mysql via Homebrew and it has already taken ~2 hours and has only completed fetching 6 of 25 dependencies. This is concerning because in the instructions it states mysql server will be set up "very quickly" after executing "brew install mysql." Does this mean something is being done incorrectly? Please note it is a tier 3 configuration as my Mac is only compatibile with OS 12.7.6 as latest version.

Hope this helps.
