The current lua package now uses the pkgconfig .pc file instead of the no longer included lua-config script. A requirement on pkgconfig is now needed, but it might then be a good time to split lua and lua-devel into two since it would currently mean adding a development type of requirement to a main package. I've made this block the FE-BuildReq bug since I discovered this problem when looking at the lighttpd build logs, which indicated a failure because of pkgconfig not being installed when trying to enable lua support.
Could you provide some more details? maybe a build log etc? If you go here: http://linux.dell.com/files/fedora/FixBuildRequires/mock-results-extras/i386/lua-5.1-3.fc6.src.rpm/result/ lua builds without the need for pkg-config. At no time during the build is pkg-config called.
Cancel that. I just clicked to what you meant. Will push a rebuild tonight.
Fixed in lua-5.1-4.
Thanks. But what about the idea of splitting off a real -devel sub-package? When there were no dependencies and only a static library, it didn't make much sense, but now I really think it does.
OK, I have split it out and it should be in the repos in the next push. Thanks!
