Removing lua51 (and possibly lua52) after the branch?



Hi!

According to upstream, development on lua 5.1 and 5.2 has stopped[1]
(the supported versions are 5.3 and 5.4).

The current=last version of lua 5.1 is 5.1.5 from 2012.

The current=last version of lua 5.2 is 5.2.4 from 2015.

I suggest removing lua51 from pkgsrc after the branch.

This affects the following packages:

games/fillets-ng/Makefile:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=      51
games/stratagus/Makefile:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=       51
games/stone-soup/Makefile.common:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=       51
games/openhexagon/Makefile:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=     51
misc/celestia/options.mk:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=       51
databases/mysql-workbench/Makefile:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=             51
mail/mailfront/options.mk:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=      51
security/libprelude-lua/Makefile:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=       51
x11/lua-keybinder/Makefile:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=     51
www/luakit/Makefile:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=    51

If we also remove lua52, the following packages are also affected:

chat/prosody/Makefile:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=  52 51
net/wireshark/options.mk:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=       52 51
multimedia/mpv/options.mk:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=      52 51
devel/lua-BitOp/Makefile:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=       52 51
mail/OSBF-lua/Makefile:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED= 52
wm/notion/Makefile:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=     52 51
textproc/lua-slnunicode/Makefile:LUA_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=       52
