brew migrate doesn't recognise migrations to API taps

brew doctor output

Your system is ready to brew

Verification

• My "brew doctor output" above says Your system is ready to brew. and am still able to reproduce my issue.
• I ran brew update twice and am still able to reproduce my issue.
• This issue's title and/or description do not reference a single formula e.g. brew install wget. If they do, open an issue at https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues/new/choose instead.

What were you trying to do (and why)?

Migrate casks from Homebrew/cask-versions with the brew migrate command.

What happened (include all command output)?

% brew migrate google-chrome-canary

% # ^ No output

Using a local tap rather than the API causes the migration to complete successfully.

This seems to be a result of:

• FromAPILoader failing as the old name isn't present in homebrew/core/homebrew/cask
• FromNameLoader failing to find the formula/cask in homebrew/core/homebrew/cask as it isn't tapped.

What did you expect to happen?

Migration to complete successfully.

Step-by-step reproduction instructions (by running brew commands)

brew migrate <old_migrated_cask/formula_name>

Not saying this should not be fixed but for extra debugging information here:

• did/does brew update --force successfully migrate these?
• why are you running brew migrate manually? What errors/messages/issues did you see?

Thanks!

did/does brew update --force successfully migrate these?

The issue is still there.

why are you running brew migrate manually

I'm getting messages like:

% brew info google-chrome-canary
Warning: Formula homebrew/cask-versions/google-chrome-canary was renamed to homebrew/cask/google-chrome@canary

("Formula" here is probably a seperate bug)

google-chrome-canary (and other casks from cask-versions) are still installed under their old name

Any automatic migration would also fail as they use the same logic as brew migrate.

% brew info google-chrome-canary

Reproduced, thanks.
