How to fix error and install xmgrace smoothly?

I tried to install xmgrace via brew with the command brew install grace, but then following error occurs:

Error: No available formula for grace 
Searching formulae...
Searching taps...
homebrew/x11/grace

I operate in the bash shell on a Mac OSX Yosemite (V10.10.2).

How can I fix the error?

Solution
