 * This package uses the deprecated functions of lua
 * 
 * ERROR: net-mail/freepops-0.2.5 failed.
 * Call stack:
 *               ebuild.sh, line   49:  Called pkg_setup
 *   freepops-0.2.5.ebuild, line   26:  Called die
 * The specific snippet of code:
 *              die 'please compile dev-lang/lua with USE=deprecated'
 *  The die message:
 *   please compile dev-lang/lua with USE=deprecated
========================================
