Bug 360679 – dev-lua/lua-zlib-0.2: new package request

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description René 'Necoro' Neumann 2011-03-27 02:03:44 UTC]

dev-lua/lua-zlib are simple lua bindings for zlib. This ebuild is proposed as it is an optional dependency of net-im/prosody.

Reproducible: Always

lua-zlib-0.2.ebuild

Here is a working ebuild.

I get this:

Huh? The installation destination is set in the ebuild via INSTALL_CMOD. Does this by chance produce an empty string for you?

What does `pkg-config --variable INSTALL_CMOD lua` return on your system?

[Comment 4 Dirkjan Ochtman (RETIRED) 2011-04-08 16:51:45 UTC]

Yup, that returns nothing for me.

[Comment 5 René 'Necoro' Neumann 2011-04-08 17:02:51 UTC]

This sounds like a bug in the lua package. Which version of it are you using?

This setting is defined in /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/lua.pc -- which (seeing the ebuilds) is installed in all cases.

[Comment 6 Dirkjan Ochtman (RETIRED) 2011-04-08 17:30:19 UTC]

I have dev-lang/lua-5.1.4-r4, but no /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/lua.pc.

I do have /usr/pkgconfig/lua.pc, though.

[Comment 7 René 'Necoro' Neumann 2011-04-08 17:45:10 UTC]

Seeing that the lua-ebuild states:

insinto /usr/$(get_libdir)/pkgconfig
doins etc/lua.pc

I would guess your lua-installation has been messed up back then. I'm wondering, why you haven't stumbled about this bug earlier, as I copied this pkg-config call from the ebuild of another lua package -- so this is the normal method for getting the CMOD-dir.

So could you try the lua-zlib ebuild again after a reinstallation of lua?

[Comment 8 René 'Necoro' Neumann 2011-04-08 17:47:50 UTC]

Just noting: Your liblua has also been installed directly under /usr (see your first comment). So during the installation of lua, something was really messed up in your system :)

[Comment 9 Dirkjan Ochtman (RETIRED) 2011-05-02 16:43:49 UTC]

Okay, since this turned out to be a problem with my lua installation, it looks like all is fine now. Committed 0.2 to the tree, thanks!
