Yes, in the meantime I tried to integrate multiarch directories into luarocks, and I stumbled onto the same problems[1] ...

Yes, I first tried something like the following: grep -h -v "^\s*#" /etc/ld.so.conf /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf 2>/dev/null | grep -v "^\s*include\s\+" | grep -v "^\s*$" The problem is that with multiarch you can have multiple versions of the same library compiled for different architectures and you must figure out which one to use for linking ... Assuming you compile for yourself, you'd want the one native architecture. I use `gcc -dumpmachine` ATM to figure that out (although it seems I need additional logic for different variants of x86). > > A suitable rockspec featuring ~> should follow some time today...
