Dear developers,
I just checked out the latest luarocks source from git, and when doing a
local installation (to $HOME/opt/stow/luarocks-git), noticed that the
same directories appear multiple times in LUA_PATH and LUA_CPATH
generated by 'luarocks path'
Some of it is due to bin/luarocks and bin/luarocks-admin having multiple
package.path definitions; however, removing all of them still results in
duplicated directories.
Files attached. This is on Fedora 15 x86_64 with the system-installed
lua -- the only slightly odd thing is that it's a multilib 64-bit
system, with lua libraries in /usr/lib64/lua/5.1. I only overrode
--prefix to generate these files; my previous attempt to do a system
install (with --with-lua-lib set to the correct value) results in an
even longer LUA_PATH and LUA_CPATH!
We're hoping to integrate LuaRocks into our Lua packaging for the next
release cycle (Fedora 16), similar to how when installing Python eggs
and Ruby gems on Fedora, already-installed modules managed by the
system's package manager are detected. It'd probably require fixing some
multilib issues (even with --with-lua-lib passed, luarocks wants to
install new modules to "lib" rather than to "lib64"), but those are a
bit harder to debug with the additional noise due to the duplicate paths!
Do let me know if there's any information I can provide.
Thanks,
