Description Andreas Kobara 2004-01-23 14:25:06 UTC

tolua needs to be linked with libdl,
please patch the Makefile and add -ldl.

i'm pretty sure this is a bug in lua

tolua links against liblualib, and since it calls functions in libdl, then it should be linked against libdl

oddly, /usr/lib/liblualib.so.5.0 is showing up as a static library on my machine ...

Simple add -ldl fix in CVS.
