Package: luarocks Version: 3.8.0+dfsg1-1 Severity: normal Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer,
Please consider upgrading the luarocks package to version v3.10.0 or later and relaxing the dependency on the lua5.x-dev packages. Prior to this version, when attempting to install a "rock" (package) for a particular Lua version without having the corresponding dev package it fails with a message like: $ luarocks install --lua-version=5.4 example.rock > Error: Failed finding Lua header files. You may need to install them > or configure LUA_INCDIR. This happens even if the rock does not require those header files, i.e. when it consists of only Lua files. Upstream report: https://github.com/luarocks/luarocks/issues/1275 This affects Prosody, see https://issues.prosody.im/1707 -- Thanks, Kim "Zash" Alvefur Prosody developer
