Hi, you can close this bug, as you suspected, it's not a problem of lua-lpeg.
The real cause was a full root partition. ldconfig error reporting is not so good.... [not only does it fail to specify which file was the problem, but it apparently uses errno when reporting problems, even when the cause is not a failing syscall, and ends up using whatever the errno was last set from some previous unconnected non-fatal failed syscall...] [Oh, sorry also about the command line... "dinst" is just an alias for "sudo aptitude install" ... :] Thanks, -miles -- Cat is power. Cat is peace.
