Maybe we can try using regular lua until users (or ourselves) start complaining about performance.

It seems to build for all the lua versions we support, so good :) > Regarding the port: better use "lua-mpack" or "lua-libmpack" as > PKGNAME-lua, for consistency and because the lang/lua module uses this > to provide automatic support for multiple versions. I've renamed the lua MULTI_PACKAGE to lua-mpack, and added the lua flavors. Although this mostly works, the problem is, you get one flavor of the -main MULTI_PACKAGE (the C library, nothing to do with lua) for each lua version. Is there a way to only FLAVOR the -lua MULTI_PACKAGE? I suspect not. In which case I suppose I will use sub-dirs that fetch the same DISTFILE with a Makefile.inc. What do you think? -- Best Regards Edd Barrett http://www.theunixzoo.co.uk
