- Subject: [ANN] LuaRocks 3.0.1

Hello list,
I'm happy to announce LuaRocks 3.0.1, a bugfix release in the 3.0 series.
LuaRocks is the package manager for Lua modules. More info and
download links at https://luarocks.org
What's new in 3.0.1:
* Numerous bugfixes including:
* Handle missing global `arg`
* Fix umask behavior
* Do not overwrite paths in format 5.x.y when cleaning up path
variables (#868)
* Do not detect files under lua_modules as part of your sources
when running `luarocks write_rockspec`
* Windows: do not hardcode MINGW in the all-in-one binary: instead
it properly detects when running from a Visual Studio Developer
Console and uses that compiler instead
* configure: --sysconfdir was fixed to its correct meaning: it now
defaults to /etc and not /etc/luarocks (`/luarocks` is appended to the
value of sysconfdir)
* configure: fixed --force-config
* Store Lua location in config file, so that a user can run `luarocks
init --lua-dir=/my/lua/location` and have that location remain active
for that project
* Various improvements to the Unix makefile, including $(DESTDIR)
support and an uninstall rule
* Autodetect FreeBSD-style include paths (/usr/include/lua5x/)
This release includes new code by George Roman, Ryan Hartlage,
Daurnimator and myself.
Thank you all for the excellent feedback for LuaRocks 3.0!
Cheers,
-- Hisham
