Hi, there is no official package naming guideline for lua packages in Fedora [1]. Similarly to python2/python3, there are two version of lua: lua and compat-lua. There is currently inconsistency in the package names for compat-lua packages. Example: compat-lua-lpeg vs. lua-cqueues-compat This makes it difficult to search for lua packages and preferably, there should be just a single naming scheme. Based on a discussion with maintainer of lua-lpeg and lua-mpack [2], we've agreed to use the naming scheme compat-lua-* If you're a maintainer of a lua-*-compat package, please use the new naming scheme along with Provides for backward compatibility [3]. If anyone has the rights to edit Package naming guidelines [1], please document the proper way to name lua and compat-lua packages. Thanks!
