Details
in posix.lua there's this line:
if _VERSION == "Lua 5.1" then bit = require "bit" else bit = require "bit32" end Thus, for lua 5.1, the package requires a 'bit' operations. aur/luabitop seems to work. To test the issue create a lua file with: require('posix') |
This task depends upon

Please report this upstream. Here are a few links for reporting
bugs for Lua:

This is NOT an upstream bug (especially not one to Lua itself.)
This gets down to the fact that Lua 5.1 doesn't have bit
operations built in and 5.2 does. luaposix depends on them. To
that fact, it checks for the existence of bit32 (for Lua 5.2) and
falls back to a community package "bit". So in all, luaposix
requires either luabitop from AUR or Lua 5.2. Thus, luabitop
either needs to be promoted to community, or luaposix should be
pushed to AUR so it can be properly depend on luabitop.
