I am tempted to merge this as is, as among the build failures, I am pretty sure most of them already fail on master, and it's simpler to fix the leaf packages with small rebuilds on master.

I am tempted to merge this as is, as among the build failures, I am pretty sure most of them already fail on master, and it's simpler to fix the leaf packages with small rebuilds on master.

Took a closer look at the broken packages (on x86_64-linux) on master:

• lua*Packages.lua-resty-openidc is marked as broken.
• lua*Packages.std-normalize builds.
• nelua builds (only has luacheck as a lua dependency).
• openrussian-cli isn't marked as broken, but fails to build.

suggestions:

• nelua builds if updated to the latest revision.
• std-normalize is failing because it has a new build_dependency that isn't packaged and that luarocks-nix doesn't pick up.
  • For now, I would suggest just to pin the previous version.
  • In the long term, luarocks-nix would need an update to support build_dependencies.
• openrussian-cli hasn't been touched in 2 years. Maybe it should be marked as broken/unmaintained?
  The repo only has 6 stars.

thanks for the thoughtful review, as a follow up I've:

• marked openrussian-cli as broken
• updated nelua
• tried to fix std._normalize but the build failed even then, we were using an unstable version that is broken so instead I told it to use the stable version and opened feat: support rockspec's build_dependencies nix-community/luarocks-nix#32 to prepare for the next release. I've packaged ldoc anyway
• lua*Packages.lua-resty-openidc can be adjusted easily once this reaches master for ZHF, but I wanted to have this PR in staging before 23.11 release.
