Had this issue (OS X El Capitan). Fixed by downgrading tesseract with

brew uninstall --force tesseract
brew install https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/homebrew/8ba134eda537d2cee7daa7ebdd9f728389d9c53e/Library/Formula/tesseract.rb

and updating xcode

xcode-select --install

the link to the homebrew repo doesn't work anymore...any other solution ?

[chivoX]

is this still broken ?

[bricemaurin]

the link is now functional, but I get the following error:

brew install https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/homebrew/8ba134eda537d2cee7daa7ebdd9f728389d9c53e/Library/Formula/tesseract.rb
