Comment 1 Tom "spot" Callaway 2026-03-17 02:12:04 UTC
aqualung-2.0-7.fc45 is rebuilding, but everything else I can see is landed in https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2026-35f1f03bc6

Comment 2 Tom "spot" Callaway 2026-03-17 02:13:15 UTC
the lua5.4-libs are still in rawhide, I'll hold them until I'm 100% sure nothing needs them.

Comment 3 Tom "spot" Callaway 2026-05-12 20:43:55 UTC
Nothing in rawhide depends on lua 5.4 except Darktable (upstream does not plan to support Lua 5.5?) and lummail (does not build from source because of pcre).

Comment 4 Tom "spot" Callaway 2026-05-18 16:59:12 UTC
I fixed lumail to use pcre2. 

I also took the time to review all of the lua scripts included in darktable and fix the few incompatibilities I identified: https://github.com/darktable-org/lua-scripts
I also (also) fixed darktable's FTBFS in rawhide, caused by an incomplete security patch.

With these fixes and subsequent rawhide builds, I believe nothing in Fedora depends on Lua 5.4.

Accordingly, I'm closing this ticket as CLOSED->RAWHIDE. Please feel free to reopen if I missed something.
