Build process can't find Lua libraries

[milisarge]

# ldconfig -p | grep -Po "liblua*.5\.3.so.0" | head -1

# ls /usr/lib/liblua.
liblua.a         liblua.so        liblua.so.5.3    liblua.so.5.3.5 

modules/Lua/Makefile line 17
LUA_LIBRARY := $(shell ldconfig -p | grep -Po "liblua*.5\.3.so.0" | head -1)
i doubt it works properly?

Hi,

I think it works on both Ubuntu and Fedora. But I could imagine it failing on some distributions. scripts/setup.py should be installing Lua 5.3.*.

Which version of OSv are you referring to? The line 17 of this Makefile looks different from what you are reporting.

Here is what I see:

10 LUA_LIBRARY := $(shell ldconfig -p | grep -Po "liblua*.5\.3.so.0" | head -1)
11 ifndef LUA_LIBRARY
12         LUA_LIBRARY := $(shell ldconfig -p | grep -Po "liblua*.5\.3.so" | head -1)
13 endif

Can you show us output from ldconfig -p?

line number can be different(i added comments etc.) but makefiles are same as at you.

# ldconfig -p | grep lua
	liblua5.2.so.5.2 (libc6,x86-64) => /lib/liblua5.2.so.5.2
	liblua5.2.so (libc6,x86-64) => /lib/liblua5.2.so
	libluajit-5.1.so.2 (libc6,x86-64) => /lib/libluajit-5.1.so.2
	libluajit-5.1.so (libc6,x86-64) => /lib/libluajit-5.1.so
	liblua.so.5.3 (libc6,x86-64) => /lib/liblua.so.5.3
	liblua.so (libc6,x86-64) => /lib/liblua.so

my distro is LFS based. but Lua works properly

The commit 05c06ba revamped a process to build the module lua and the particular line mentioned in the description of this issue is gone. So this issue is no longer relevant and I am closing it.
