I'm completely unfamiliar with LUA packaging so bear with me...

1. Where does the license come from? There's nothing in the package and licensecheck couldn't derive anything from the files in the archive.

2. Is the C- prepended on the library because it's C based? There doesn't seem to be any official LUA packaging guidelines for Fedora.

Yeah, nothing in the tarball mentions the license. It's listed in Luarocks (Lua's equivalent to pypi) (which is linked to from the documentation):
http://luarocks.org/modules/peterbillam/readline (if you click on any of the version e.g. 2.7-0 and look at the rockspec file, it lists the license too)

I'm following the author's intention here. The Lua module (readline.lua) requires the C module as C-readline:

specs/lua/readline-2.7 on  master [?] 
❯ grep "require 'C-readline'" readline.lua                                     
local initialise = require 'C-readline'

I'm working on packaging guidelines for Lua (as well as some automated packaging tool) but they're not ready yet, my bad. Hopefully soon enough we'll be able to run `rock2spec readline` and it will download the rockspec and generate a reasonable spec.

Ok, that's enough for me, I don't think there's enough going on here to justify running fedora-review on. I verified the build flags are being honored and you're installing to a private library location outside of straight /usr/lib{,64}.
