Bug 440680

Hi Michel. The dependencies have just been approved and you can start reviewing
this package and #440681 now.

Thanks for the heads-up!

Same problem as luadoc:
- rpmlint: strange permission for tarball: 0600
- package is noarch but installs files in %{_libdir}
- does not seem to work on x86_64:

> require "logging.console"
> local logger = logging.console()
> =logger
nil

Same as luadoc, re-uploaded the very same SRPM with fixed source tarball
permissions. For this package there is nothing in %{_libdir} as well, tricked by
lualibdir define? Please otherwise attach "rpm -qpl" output of resulting package.

For the test you did: it cannot work the way you did it! The Lua shell compiles
every line as its own chunk. If you use "local logger" then it's only defined
for that very line and cannot be used in the next line. You can use either:
> local logger = logging.console(); logger:info("Test")
(have it both on one line such that logger is defined) or just don't have the
local such that the logger is global and thus available in the following lines.
This has nothing to do with x86_64 (I'm testing on this platform myself) - after
all this package is true noarch.

Aha! So that's the scope of local. I was expecting the context to be the entire
top-level, not just the single compilation unit. Thanks.
