1. Install homebrew from host.

5. Follow the Next steps instructions to add Linuxbrew to your PATH of host system and to your container bash shell profile script, either ~/.profile on Debian/Ubuntu or ~/.bash_profile on CentOS/Fedora/RedHat. The best place is to put it in ~/.bashrc.

   brew install neofetch
