Allegro 5 Libraries

Hello, I'm seeking to use Allegro for a school project, but, despite homebrew agreeing that I have the files installed on my system, they are not in /usr/local/lib

As a result I'm having trouble setting up a working project as I can't find the proper files necessary for linking. Any help would be appreciated.

What do you get when you run "brew info allegro"?

Looks like the files are here: /usr/local/Cellar/allegro/5.2.2

You can do "brew uninstall allegro" and then install again if the original install didn't quite work right.
