G'day,

[All content here relates to GNU/Linux builds; I've tried to work on two
separate Ubuntu-based distributions.]

I've been trying to avoid unpacking/building the Lua sources inside
the IM/CD/IUP extended tree, hoping that I could simply rely on
the version of Lua installed on the system.

The documentation:
         * im-3.12_Docs.pdf, Page 14;
         * cd-5.11.1_Docs.pdf, Pages 26/27; and
         * iup-3.23_Docs.pdf, Page 55;

all state that unpacking/using the SourceForge "LuaBinaries" project,
which consolidates Lua versions for use within projects, is optional,
as long as the environment has:

         export LUA_SUFFIX=
         export LUA_INC=/usr/include/lua5.1

The documentation also notes that IUP relies on CD, and CD relies on
IM, so, of the three, IM should be built first.
[...]

G'day, and thanks for the response.

When I write "local-lua-less", I merely mean that a version of
Lua (SourceForge package LuaBinaries) is not present in the build
tree.  I do not mean to state that Lua is entirely absent from
the system.

Okay, I've double-checked, and the packages:

        * lua5.1; and
        * liblua5.1-0-dev

are installed (as per the documentation); this was done many months
ago.  Also, as noted above, I'm aware and careful about setting
LUA_SUFFIX and LUA_INC in the environment before starting a build.

Therefore, if I am reading the situation correctly, the documentation
for the GNU/Linux build is incorrect (defective/buggy) when it states
that using the LuaBinaries project from SourceForge in the local
TecGraf (Lua/IM/CD/IUP) tree is optional.

Does this description match your understanding of the situation?

Thanks in advance,

s-b etc
