[vlc-devel] [Bug] Can't load liblua_plugin.so with VLC 2.2.1 and Lua 5.3.0

[Chi Hsuan Yen]

Dear VLC developers,

I'm using latest VLC building against Lua 5.3.0. When I start vlc from the
terminal, I encounter the following errors:

$ vlc -v
VLC media player 2.2.1 Terry Pratchett (Weatherwax) (revision

I'm using Arch Linux with testing repo enabled. A similar bug report can be
found at https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/44946. According to Anatol
Pomozov, luaL_openlib is not compiled in Lua 5.3.0 by default. Can anyone
have a look?

Compilarion configuration of VLC and Lua can be found at
https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/vlc/trunk/ and
https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/lua/trunk/
respectively, especially build() function in PKGBUILD file. Hope this
information helps :)

Best Regards,

Yen Chi Hsuan
