Support pkg-config

tyrro opened this issue · 1 comments

While installing the ruby-lua gem, I found out that the plugin doesn't support pkg-config. Other plugins such as asdf-ruby support pkg-config. Homebrew's Lua package supports it as well. Is it possible to include the support in this plugin?

In case you're interested in the error message due to the absence of pkg-config, I have included it here. Thank you for creating this plugin.

        Install the library or try one of the following options to extconf.rb:

        --with-lua-lib=/path/to/liblua/lib
        --with-lua-include=/path/to/liblua/include

Hi @tyrro ! I'm not familiar with pkg-config, can you provide a rough example of how I'd add support to asdf-lua, and how it'd be used once support is added? Happy to add it if I can.

Also, PR is welcome if you want to try implementing support for it!
