Packaging change

This package is now noarch, obsoleting the previous arched package so it can be upgraded. /usr/lib vs /usr/lib64 detection is done dynamically at runtime; manifests go to /usr/lib/luarocks.

What's new in LuaRocks 3.5.0

This is a small release:

• Added support for MSYS2 and Mingw-w64
• Reverted the change in MSVC environment variable set up script
• Fixes a bug where --verbose raised an exception with a nil argument
• Added proper error messages when lua.h is invalid

What's new in LuaRocks 3.4.0

Features

• luarocks make now supports --only-deps
• luarocks make new flag: --no-install, which only performs the compilation step
• --deps-only is now an alias for --only-deps (useful in case you always kept getting it wrong, like me!)
• luarocks build and luarocks make now support using --pin and --only-deps at the same time, to produce a lock file of dependencies in use without installing the main package.
• luarocks show can now accept a substring of the rock's name, like list.
• luarocks config: when running without system-wide permissions, try storing the config locally by default. Also, if setting both lua_dir and --lua-version explicitly, auto-switch the default Lua version.
• luarocks with no arguments now prints more info about the location of the Lua interpreter which is being used
• luarocks new_version now keeps the old URL if the MD5 doesn't change.
• DEPS_DIR is now accepted as a generic variable for dependency directories (e.g. luarocks install foo DEPS_DIR=/usr/local)
• Handle quoting of arguments at the application level, for improved Windows support
• All-in-one binary bundles dkjson, so it runs luarocks upload without requiring any additional dependencies.
• Tweaks for Terra compatibility

Fixes

• win32: generate proper temp filename
• No longer assume that Lua 5.3 is built with compat libraries and bundles bit32
• luarocks show: do not crash when rockspec description is empty
• When detecting the location of lua.h, check that its version matches the version of Lua being used
• Fail gracefully when a third-party tool (wget, etc.) is missing
• Fix logic for disabling mirrors that return network errors
• Fix detection of Lua path based on arg variable
• Fix regression on dependency matching of luarocks.loader
