Description "FeRD" (Frank Dana) 2023-04-30 02:21:00 UTC

Description of problem:

I messed up.

As I detail at the end of this Fedora Discussions thread[1], when I submitted the PR for the luarocks-3.9.1 update, I mistakenly dropped the Fedora patch that was correcting the default arch-specific library install dir to /usr/lib64 instead of /usr/lib.

So, without that patch, luarocks installs to the wrong library directory.

[1]: https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/luarocks-does-not-install-into-lib64-folder-but-lib-instead/80762/9

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

luarocks-3.9.1-1.fc39 (luarocks on f38 and f37 is also affected; possibly EPEL as well)

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. `sudo luarocks --global install LuaFileSystem`
2. `ls /usr/lib64/lua/5.4/lfs.so`
3. `ls /usr/lib/lua/5.4/lfs.so`

Actual results:

2: ls: cannot access '/usr/lib64/lua/5.4/lfs.so': No such file or directory
3: /usr/lib/lua/5.4/lfs.so

Expected results:

2: /usr/lib64/lua/5.4/lfs.so
3: ls: cannot access '/usr/lib/lua/5.4/lfs.so': No such file or directory


Additional info:

I've already submitted a PR [2] to correct this on rawhide. I'll be happy to submit backport PRs for f38 and f37 as well, if need be. Any chance we could get new builds, to correct this unfortunate screw-up on my part?

(I'll even add in an update to luarocks-3.9.2, since that's been released now, so we kill two birds with one bodhi update.)

Oops, thanks for letting me know! Will review today and handle the backports
