I've put up the Wiki page at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Lua This might need to be added to the guideline: Lua seems to search for libraries only in the current directory and in %{_libdir}. This means that even packages that are actually noarch cannot be declared as such, to make sure that they are built separately on each platform.
