Yeah, we can build Lua on Windows and install it into the MinGW path. That's how the rest of the libraries are currently handled. Then the installer grabs the .dlls from the MinGW install path.
Have you successfully built Lua on Windows? If so, let me know the details, and I'll install it on the build server.

From the gnu make manual it seems that running pkg-config is not recommended inside a Makefile. It should probably be done in the configure stage, but anyway, since liblua has different names on each platform, pkg-config only returns that name. So I ended up just hard-coding liblua names and lua.h path for each OS in the Makefile. Now the nightly build for Windows is failing because it can't resolve -llua51.dll. It seems that there is no standard place to put that dll. Sooo, maybe pd-extended should build lua as well, like portaudio, or should the dll be put in pd/bin, like pthreads.dll?

Martin,
I think you could put different pkg-config lines in the per-OS section of the Makefile, and that would work for differences between Debian/Ubuntu, Mac OS X, and Windows liblua. That won't help if different GNU/Linux distros have different names for the lib tho.

Hello,
In the original Makefile.static for pdlua it is defined:
lua-5.1.3
This worked for me on OSX.

The error actually seems to originate in pkg-config not finding lua5.1:From my limited experience, Lua 5.1 libraries have different names all over the place, even in different GNU/Linux distros (lua51, lua5.1, lua5, lua, ...). A bit of a nightmare.
"pkg-config lua --libs" should do it on Mac OS X/Fink. .hcClaude
