Hi Marlin!
I am not really familiar with the Lua ecosystem, but wouldn't it be desirable to use Guix to manage Lua package, the way it's done for e.g. Haskell
right now?
I don't fully understand how luarocks works, but is it possible to have an
"importer" for luarocks packages, similar to e.g. the hackage importer?
Best,

I'm trying to port over fennel and luarocks to guix.
Fennel is a lisp language which compiles to lua, and luarocks is a
Pypi-like package manager for lua libraries
I believe a luarocks build system would be needed.
The packges are luarocks.scm and fennel.scm, located at my personal channel.
