Hi Hisham
Funny that I only noted the difference because I run the tests.
LuaRocks didn't reported any difference in the md5sum...
The .rockspec files do have the md5sum for the other versions, but you
probably used the .src.rock file, which bundles the old lpdf.tar.gz in
them (so that the rock doesn't break when lhf makes a new release).
But it should break, doesn't it? The versions are incompatible!
By the way, I am experiencing a weird situation. When I
received your message, I reloaded my web page that shows the repository.
The two new versions (20130702.52-1) took a couple of minutes to appear.
Then I tried LuaRocks (2.1.0) in the command line, but it installed
the previous (problematic) version. I waited some minutes trying
`luarocks search lpdf' but it didn't show up. Then, I tried to search
in two other machines, both with LuaRocks 2.0.12, and the search showed
the new version! Maybe LuaRocks made a cache of the repository...
Is that correct?
Strange. The command-line tool does not keep a cache of the remote
manifest between invocations. LR 2.1.0 shows different search results
depending on the Lua version you're running (5.1 or 5.2).
Are you fetching straight from the luarocks.org repository or using a
mirror? I just realized some mirrors may not be fetching manifest-5.1
and manifest-5.2 (as used by LR 2.1.0) if they're mirroring with wget
instead of rsync. I'm adding links to those in the index.html file
just to make sure.
I just tested again and now the new version shows up... In this
machine we have LR 2.1, but the configuration file is the same as the
others, with LR 2.0.12:
rocks_servers = {
[[http://luarocks.org/repositories/rocks]],
[[/var/www/rocks]],
[[http://luarocks.giga.puc-rio.br/]]
}
rocks_trees = {
home..[[/.luarocks]],
[[/home/ccpa-auto/luarocks]],
home..[[/.luarocks]],
[[/usr/local]]
}
Well, the problem is gone. But if you want any other information,
tell me.
Regards,
Tomás
