Greetings again
I'm trying but failing to get lgdbm installed (on devuan daedalus) by
apt install lgdbm
or also by download the tar file and installing by hand,
but in both cases I get:
lgdbm 20130702-1 depends on lua >= 5.1 (5.3-1 provided by VM)
gcc -O2 -fPIC -I/usr/include/lua5.3 -c lgdbm.c -o lgdbm.o -I/usr/include
lgdbm.c: In function ‘luaopen_gdbm’:
lgdbm.c:263:2: warning: implicit declaration of function 'luaL_register';
did you mean 'lua_register'? [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
263 | luaL_register(L,MYNAME,R);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~
| lua_register
It might have been just a matter of replacing luaL_register with lua_register
but the worrd luaL_register does not occur in the code
260 luaL_newmetatable(L,MYTYPE);
261 luaL_setfuncs(L,R,0);
262 lua_pushliteral(L,"version"); /** version */
263 lua_pushliteral(L,MYVERSION);
264 lua_pushstring(L,gdbm_version);
265 lua_concat(L,2);
266 lua_settable(L,-3);
Something very similar has happened before :
https://sourceforge.net/p/luarocks/mailman/message/33877260/
I'm 75 now, and I've spent all day getting nowhere with this :-(
So what I really need is for someone younger than me to adopt lgdbm
lgdbm is required by CommandLineUI.lua and that's required by
many of the things I need.
I worked fine on previous versions of devuan.
Can someone at least please tell me how to modify the above code ?
Or (very preferably) could someone please adopt lgdbm ?
