[Buildroot] [pkg-luarocks infra 0/5] a package infrastructure for Lua modules

[Francois Perrad]

LuaRocks is a deployment and management system for Lua modules.
(see http://luarocks.org/)

I write a package infrastructure with it.
luarocks is used by 3 steps :
 - download
 - extract
 - target build/install

This current implementation needs 2 small patches for LuaRocks, and works only with pure Lua modules.
I plan future works for :
 - split build & install step
 - support of native modules (C cross-compilation)
but I think that they need more intrusive changes in LuaRock.

So, I think what community feedback are wellcome at this stage.

Francois Perrad (5):
  lua*: restore version in module paths
  lua: remove too invasive patch
  luarocks: new package
  add luarocks infrastructure
  refactor with luarocks infrastructure
