There are 2 luarc files, one for darktable and one for you. The
darktable one, on my system (Ubuntu 16.04), is
/usr/share/darktable/luarc. The one you want to use is the
$HOME/.config/darktable/luarc for including any scripts that you want
to use.
The lua scripts are located at
https://github.com/darktable-org/lua-scripts. You can download
individual scripts or the whole tree. Or, you can use git and clone
the repository and then updating is a simple matter of changing to
that directory and doing a git pull.
So, you could do:
mkdir $HOME/src
cd $HOME/src
git clone https://github.com/darktable-org/lua-scripts
ln -s $HOME/src/lua-scripts $HOME/.config/darktable/lua
then edit your luarc file and add require lines such as:
require "contrib/hugin"
require "contrib/gimp"
require "official/selection_to_pdf"
and so on...
Or, if you don't have git installed
mkdir $HOME/src
cd $HOME/src
curl -O -L https://github.com/darktable-org/lua-scripts/archive/master.zip
unzip master.zip
ln -s $HOME/src/lua-scripts $HOME/.config/darktable/lua
then edit the luarc and do the require as above.
Hope this helps,
Bill

Ciao David,
as a general Linux rule if you put something in your $HOME works
for you only.
/usr/share/ works for ALL users in your Linux box.
You need to be root in order to write on /usr/share or any other
system wide
path.
