Description Reuben Martin 2022-02-16 02:22:48 UTC 
The sanity checks in the neovim build check for the availability of the "luajit" command. This fails because dev-lang/luajit-2.1.0_beta3_p20220127 installs "/usr/bin/luajit-2.1.0-beta3" without creating the softlink "/usr/bin/luajit" pointing to it.

After manually creating the softlink, the build succeeds. Not certain if this is something to be addressed in the neovim or luajit package. I suspect it needs fixed in the luajit package. Without the link there are also runtime errors in neovim.

Reproducible: Always

I think this was fixed in 2.1.0_beta3_p20220127-r1 earlier today. Could you try it?

Yep, that fixed it. Thanks.
