Lua bindings for POSIX iconv

lua-iconv's Issues

moving repo to lunarmodules

continuing from this ticket: lunarmodules#1

@ittner @teto I have added the previously created group as maintainers to this repo now.

It would be good if we could duplicate this effort in this repo as well.

@jonringer should I be adding you as a maintainer as well?

Cannot install on OSX

Hi, I recently packaged your library for NixOS, the CI builds Darwin as well as Linux by default. There seem to be a number of issues that prevent this from working with OSX.

I fixed a bunch of things but finally when I try to run the example.lua file included in this git repo I get the following:

sh-3.2# lua test_iconv.lua 
lua: error loading module 'iconv' from file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.2/iconv.so':
        dlopen(/usr/local/lib/lua/5.2/iconv.so, 6): Symbol not found: _iconv
  Referenced from: /usr/local/lib/lua/5.2/iconv.so
  Expected in: flat namespace
 in /usr/local/lib/lua/5.2/iconv.so
stack traceback:
        [C]: in ?
        [C]: in function 'require'
        test_iconv.lua:3: in main chunk
        [C]: in ?

I've been able to package another lua binding on OSX without issue, I'm not sure I understand why this binding should be any different. Fwiw, I also modified the Makefile to link with libiconv, so it's not clear to me why the symbol cannot be found.

Thanks,
Richard

source url unavailable

the download link in the rockspec https://github.com/ittner/lua-iconv/blob/b761918588736348698eb060a3a490f448786f01/lua-iconv-7-1.rockspec#L9C10-L9C74 is a 404. It breaks my script that autogenerates nix code.

Is it possible to fix the rockspec to point at an existing archive ?

./iconv.so: undefined symbol: libiconv

when i run the test_iconv.lua, i get error below:

/usr/local/lua-5.1.4/bin/lua /root/lua-iconv/test_iconv.lua

/usr/local/lua-5.1.4/bin/lua: error loading module 'iconv' from file './iconv.so':

i am sure i have been installed libiconv-1.13.1, it is in /usr/local/iconv-1.13.1, and:

ldconfig -p|grep iconv

    libiconv.so.2 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/local/libiconv-1.13.1/lib/libiconv.so.2
    libiconv.so (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/local/libiconv-1.13.1/lib/libiconv.so

can you help me ?
