Re: [ptxdist] Newbie: Howto add luajit 2.x as a new package in ptxdist

[Michael Deiters <michael@deiters.net>]

Hi Roland,

many thanks for the swift reply.

My disconnect starts already at the first stage. My BSP has no information 
that I need luajit in my project. I understand I need to create the 
"rules" files to instruct PTXdist to compile luajit. My question is, how 
do the rule file(s) look like, if I (simply) would like to include a 
source package from a debian distro. I'm afraid I'm either far away from 
the correct approach or very close...

Thank you for your patience.

Kind regards
Michael
