So far, we've been going with the opposite approach: assume the rockspec will be compatible and fix the dependency info of the incompatible modules later. I understand the pros of the conservative approach, but if LuaRocks simply refuses to install a rock with the new Lua version, users will just assume the rock is incompatible. If the rock installs and then fails, the module author will probably get a bug report and will be motivated to either fix the rockspec or make their module compatible with the new Lua version. In any case, I think that's more a decision for each rockspec author to make: it's you, the community, that should make this call. -- Hisham http://hisham.hm/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Central: Instant, anywhere, Remote PC access and management.
