G'day,
[This is for iup-users; the same message appears on lua-l.]
My Lua-to-GNU/Linux-LuaRocks-Tecgraf{IM,CD,IUP} project has been
significantly updated, and is available on SourceForge at:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/lglicua/files/
This is the first release in over a year, and the code has been
updated in various places:
- Supports Lua 5.4.7. Uses source compilation, so can provide
versions of Lua not supported by the Distribution's package
manager. More support has been added for
{static,dynamic}*{C,C++} build variants;
- Continues to support "continue" experimental patch, e.g.:
PROJECT/install> ./i lua-install 5.4.7+continue
Other experimental patches can be added over time;
- LuaRocks upgraded from 3.9.2 to latest stable 3.11.1;
[Just as an aside, lglicua may be useful just to get
Lua+LuaRocks+various Rocks onto a machine, even where the user has
no interest in the Tecgraf components.]
- Supports quite a range of GNU/Linux distributions:
* Debian/Ubuntu family:
* Debian 12.5;
* Kali 2024.2;
* Linux Mint 19.3, 20.3, 21.3 and newly-released 22;
* MX23.3_ahs_x64;
* Ubuntu 22.04.4, 23.10 and 24.04; and
* Red Hat family:
* CentOS-Core 7;
* CentOS-Stream 8 and 9;
* Rocky Linux 8.10, 9.3 and 9.4.
The code has had a brief sanity test (many, many runs across 16
machines, with an attempted full build of major packages from
source, each time code was changed), but hasn't had a thorough
regression test, Valgrind or other stress testing.
--------
Antonio Scuri has been the manager for the Tecgraf IM/CD/IUP
packages (on SourceForge); I'm not sure of his current
responsibilities within PUC/Rio.
