Since we now require Lua package names to start with "lua", it is likely that the Buildroot name is different from the upstream LuaRocks name. Add a feature to the luarocks-package infra that makes it easier to handle this situation: the package can explicitly specify the upstream name in PKG_NAME_UPSTREAM, and that name will be used in PKG_ROCKSPEC, PKG_SOURCE and PKG_SUBDIR. Add an explanation of this feature to the manual. To make the example relevant, it is changed to lua-foo, where the upstream name is plain foo. To avoid confusion with the dependency on a native library, that dependency is renamed to bar.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
