That's the responsibility of the Debian maintainer. The system package includes its own rockspec. LR will ask the system where to look for the extra rockspecs. Push anything that's system-specific into a hook and make it the distribution's problem. Actually, looking at the current Debian luarocks, I think it's already capable of finding system packages if they start including rockspecs. They just have to rebuild the manifest when being installed. I suppose that needs an update- manifest option to luarocks-admin. -- tom <[email protected]> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
