Yes, it is in the new queue as lua-lpeg, and the package description
contains LPeg too. Binary packages will be liblua5.1-lpeg0 and
liblua5.1-lpeg-dev and the lua module will be loadable with 

  require lpeg

If you are inpatient, or want to test it before it passes the new queue,
you can use the following svn repository: 

  svn co svn://svn.debian.org/pkg-lua/packages/lua-lpeg

Cheers.

2007-12-11 Thread Enrico Tassi
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

--- Please fill out the fields below. ---

   Package name: lua-peg
Version: 0.7
Upstream Author: Roberto Ierusalimschy [EMAIL PROTECTED]
URL: http://www.inf.puc-rio.br/~roberto/lpeg.html
License: MIT/X
Description: 
  LPeg is a new pattern-matching library for Lua, based on Parsing
  Expression Grammars (PEGs). Parsing expression grammars look
  similar to regular expressions or context-free grammars in
  Backus-Naur form (BNF) notation. PEGs make a good replacement for
  regular expressions, because they are strictly more powerful. For
  example, a regular expression inherently cannot find matched pairs
  of parentheses, because it is not recursive, but a PEG can.
