LuaJIT: install.sh doesn't finish successfully " error loading module 'lfs' " about nvim-gdb HOT 8 CLOSED

I've noticed you had LuaJIT. So the new change should prefer it.
Could you please provide the log (even better with bash -x install.sh) in a gist?
By the way, did you try erasing lua/rocks before running install.sh?

from nvim-gdb.

I erased lua/rocks and it worked!
Thanks a lot for your help and your quick answer!
(and thank you for this plugin as well)

Thanks for the report! So I see the deployment fails when luajit is used instead of lua51. I can reproduce this, and will investigate.

from nvim-gdb.

There is an open issue 325 in LuaJIT. Some modules can't be built with luajit because of using deprecated functions.

from nvim-gdb.

If lua51 is installed, the luafilesystem is compiled with the following command:

gcc -O2 -fPIC -I/usr/include/lua5.1 -c src/lfs.c -o src/lfs.o

However, if there is no lua51, another command is executed:

gcc -O2 -fPIC -I/usr/include/lua -c src/lfs.c -o src/lfs.o

Thus, incorrent include files are used.

@Narice, please let me know if the fix doesn't work for you.

Hello,
The fix doesn't seem to work
I'm on Arch Linux, I have Lua, Lua5.1, Lua 5.2 and I tried with and without the Lua51-filesystem package installed on my machine but it didn't work
Should I try to deinstall all Lua related package on my machine and just install Lua5.1?
Do you want the new output of the shell script?

I also have LuaJIT
