lua-5.3.3: the pkg-config file should include "-ldl".

Description

Some lua programs must link to the dl library. (Example file attached.) This means that lua.pc should include "-llua -ldl -lm" in the "Libs:" line instead of just "-llua -lm". Both conky-1.9.0 (which uses autotools) and conky-1.10.6 (which uses cmake) failed to link the conky executable until I fixed lua.pc in this way.

Have you reported this upstream?

comment:2 by Jeremy Henty, 7 years ago

Upstream does not support pkg-config . BLFS has special instructions to create lua.pc .
