Has anything changed to the linux counterpart ? With bk if the installation has changed than linux compiles/installs are probably broken.

Just update GCC to the newest you can for your distro, or build your own toolchain, for the best C++11 support. You should be good to go after that.

To skip the stupid step about symlinking LUA, change these lines in configure.ac

Code: Select all

LUA_REQUIRED_VERSION=0.25
PKG_CHECK_MODULES(LUA, lua5.1 >= LUA_REQUIRED_VERSION)
to

Code: Select all

LUA_REQUIRED_VERSION=5.1
PKG_CHECK_MODULES(LUA, lua >= LUA_REQUIRED_VERSION)

Unfortunately whether the .so name is lua or lua5.1 depends on the distro. I mainly test on debian and lubuntu so thats what linux stuff tends to focus on. I reserve the right to be lazy since there isn't much interest in linux use.
