Bug#814218: lua-ldap: Add support for Lua 5.2

[W. Martin Borgert]

Hi Daniel,

thanks for your link to the new upstream!

Luca, Enrico, does this help you?

As for stretch-backports: Yes, Lua 5.1 is an option. But we need
a new lua-ldap for buster anyway, so I'ld prefer to backport
that one, as soon as it is in testing. Let's see...

Cheers

Hi Martin,

the more or less official looking successor repo on LuaRocks seems to be: 
https://luarocks.org/modules/devurandom/lualdap
Which points to: https://github.com/lualdap/lualdap

Prosody 0.11 seems to be the last version to still support Lua 5.1, so
using Lua 5.1 may seem like a workaround, at least for stretch-
backports?

Kind regards,
Dan

Hi Luca,

any progress in finding a new or the right upstream?
The problem becomes a little bit more pressing now:
I plan to upload prosody 0.11 to unstable soon, maybe today.
Prosody 0.11 uses Lua 5.2 instead of 5.1 as recommended by upstream.
LDAP support in Prosody is, of course, relevant to some.
Including Debian itself :)

TIA & Cheers

Since reporting this bug, I've been using the pdns-recursor package
from Fedora 23 running under Docker and it has worked well with
lua-ldap which ships with the distribution along with Lua 5.3. Would
this link be of any help?

If anybody would like to take over my lualdap fork, I'd be happy to
transfer commit access.

Hi there,

sorry for the delay, mostly due to real life and the fact that the
servers (with Prosody + lua-ldap) I administer are still on wheezy.

I am sorry, but after having tried for 2 weeks now I have given up
trying to understand where the lualdap sources reside, here some
comments:

- 

  AFAIK still the "official" repository, but development has never
  started on it, except for the 2 pulls requests.

  Yet, there are 13 forks on GitHub only!

- 
  
   


  If I read history correctly, some of the more prominent forks, now all
  stalled.

- 
   

  I do not understand why 2 different repositories from the same author
  and no indications that they are the same :-(

- 

  This should be the official follow-up, but as far as I could see
  nothing from the other forks (nor even the "official" one by
  bdellegrazie) has been integrated:


 

  Indeed, on LuaRocks the bdellegrazie's fork is listed:


  
- 
   

  A very recent fork, wait, not even a Git fork but history rewritten...
  
I am aware of the poor maintenance in Debian, entirely due to my fault,
at least in term of all-the-upstream-sources following.

IMHO the best thing should be to ask for removal, especially given the
various upstream sources and to not give a false idea of what is being
installed.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca

Bug#814218: lua-ldap: Add support for Lua 5.2

[Avinash Sultanpur]

Package: lua-ldap
Version: 1.1.0-1-geeac494-6
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The pdns-recursor is compiled with liblua5.2-0 and this package does
not have support for Lua 5.2 which makes it unusable with Power DNS.

There are a couple of open pull requests on Github which add support
for Lua 5.2. Please merge them in order to support Lua 5.2.

https://github.com/luaforge/lualdap/pulls

Cheers,
Avinash.
