Configure fails to find includes

Code: Select all

-- LUA library found at  : lua5.2;m
-- LUA includes found at : 
I'm getting this and compile fails. Running Gentoo, gcc-10.3, binutils-2.36.1. Domoticz is from git, as of today.
Why configure can't find lua includes? They are right there, installed in /usr/lua5.2/, I even added symlink to this directory /usr/lua/. While compiling it stops with error lua.h not found.

domoticz uses Lua 5.3. On my system the library is located in /usr/include/lua5.3 and found by the cmake process.

Did you follow the Build domoticz from source procedure to the letter?

Thanks for reply. No, I am not following the instructions, I'm using a Gentoo ebuild (not official). It has always worked in past, I guess it is no good any more. Will see now if this ebuild can be fixed or I will build by hand.

It was PEBCAK after all. I didn't notice my way to upgrade overlay didn't work properly and there was a new ebuild, now everything is built and runs as expected. The tip about lua version put me in the right track. Thanks!
