[Monotone-devel] nvm.stripped failing check for lua

[Derek Scherger]

On my system (gentoo) the pkg-config check for lua fails with:

checking for LUA... no
checking for lua 5.1... no; guessing
checking for lua_load in -llua5.1... no
checking whether the lua library is usable... yes

Applying the following patch to patch m4/lua.m4 seems to make it happy:

#
# old_revision [6c5a8fa3d0437be28f59b448a5f72c90267df149]

# patch "m4/lua.m4"

Is this a reasonable change on other systems?
