wf-tools-lua fails to install

[RepellantMold]

i attempted to do wf-pacman -S target-gba

C:\msys64\opt\wonderful\bin\wf-lua.exe: ...\..\lib\lua\5.4\wf\internal\tool\config\clean_caches.lua:4: module 'lfs' not found:

error: command failed to execute correctly

this seems to impact any tool using lua, which i'm not sure how to fix...

[asiekierka]

Could you provide me with the output of the following two commands?

$ wf-pacman -Si wf-tools-lua
$ wf-pacman -Ss wf

wf-pacman -Si wf-tools-lua:

One more:

$ export | grep LUA

[RepellantMold]

declare -x LUAROCKS_CONFIG="C:\\Users\\RepellantMold\\scoop\\apps\\luarocks\\current\\config.lua"
declare -x LUA_CPATH="C:\\Users\\RepellantMold\\scoop\\apps\\lua\\current\\bin"
declare -x LUA_EXE_PATH="C:\\Users\\RepellantMold\\scoop\\apps\\lua\\current\\bin"

hmm...

[asiekierka]

Okay. Try unset LUA_CPATH and running the wf-pacman command again. No promises it will work.

If that doesn't help, please run ls -l /opt/wonderful/lib/lua/5.4/.

[RepellantMold]

did unset LUA_CPATH and everything works now.

Thank you for your patience - I'll leave the issue open to make wf-lua use distinct environment variables in the future. Happy to hear it's working now!
