How to resolve potential conflicts due to Anaconda and Homebrew? - macos

I have Anaconda and Homebrew installed in OSX. Homebrew provides the following diagnostics.
What is the best way to resolve the potential conflicts between Anaconda and Homebrew? How should they be managed not to cause problems to each other?
$ brew doctor

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:

1)so there i see it is asking me to delete some of the files from the folders /usr/local/lib /usr/local/include /usr/local/lib
i just want to know how does this files happened to exist and how they effect homebrew.
2)also i did brew prune to remove the broken symlinks but i see them again after i again used brew doctor .
3) i see a warning above broken symlinks warning i.e
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
how to fix it?
pardon me if this is being asked again cause i'm a beginner and couldnt find appropriate solutions.

brew doctor Warning: Unbrewed dylibs were found in /usr/local/lib

I'm sort of new to programming and in the path of setting the environment ready under Mac OS X Yosemite I ran into some issues under the brew doctor command.
It says
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!
but I don't really know what to expect and to avoid future issues I'd like to see the output "Your system is ready to brew"
First I ran the brew purge command with the following output
horus:~ rsmendes$ brew prune
Pruned 0 dead formulae Pruned 136
symbolic links and 4 directories from /usr/local
Now I'm getting dylibs warning. I've read that this is solved by removing this files, but also read that it is possible to break something, and I'm uncertain of how to proceed.
I'm also getting header, unbrewed .la, unbrewed .pc and unbrewed static libraries that all seem to be related to the dylibs mentioned.

Warning: You have uncommitted modifications to Homebrew
If this a surprise to you, then you should stash these modifications.
Stashing returns Homebrew to a pristine state but can be undone
should you later need to do so for some reason.
cd /usr/local/Library && git stash && git clean -d -f
I can make out from the above 3 warnings that some of them are related to NTFS-3g and libfuse that I installed without using Homebrew, but other than that I don't know how to fix them.
Should I be worried about these warnings? Also, the last warning about changes made to Homebrew installation also worries me, because I haven't made any changes.
How should I fix these warnings?
First of all, these are warnings only, so if nothing is broken it might be prudent to do nothing.
If you don't need ntfs-3g and fuse anymore, just delete those files. You could also consider re-installing these using brew afterwards.
To check what was modified in your Homebrew checkout, do
cd /usr/local/Library
git diff

Unexpected dylib, la, and pc files with fresh mountain lion install

Just reinstalled osx and only installed chrome, sublime, and xcode cli tools so far. I got these warnings from brew doctor:

Is it safe to remove these files or should I just ignore the warnings?
Do you, by any chance, have TrueCrypt or OSXFuse installed? Because your problem looks like this or this. The TrueCrypt problem is fixed by this script, and if you have OSXFuse, you can just remove it and use homebrew's version instead.
There's nothing wrong with the answer #Bogdan gives (I upvoted it) but in case it doesn't work for anyone, this script of mine also provides a one-shot solution--just run it, and you're good.

How to fix my brew doctor errors?

Running brew doctor on my mountain lion terminal , I get the following errors :
Warning: /usr/local/etc isn't writable.
This can happen if you "sudo make install" software that isn't managed
by Homebrew.
If a brew tries to write a file to this directory, the install will
fail during the link step.
You should probably `chown` /usr/local/etc
Warning: Some directories in /usr/local/share/man aren't writable.
This can happen if you "sudo make install" software that isn't managed

directories, then the install will fail during the link step.
You should probably `chown` them:
/usr/local/share/man/man8

How can I fix these errors?
Is it critical to fix them or I may ignore them?
Thank you.
If you read the text carefully, you will realize that it actually tells you how to fix the errors:
You should probably `chown` /usr/local/etc
You should probably `chown` them:
/usr/local/share/man/man8
dylibs, .pc files..
may need to be deleted
So, change the owner of the mentioned directory to your user, and delete the unwanted files (if you didn't put them there on purpose).
