Describe the bug

When install with lazy, the error as picture.

Does this plugin only support lua 5.1 to install?

Steps To Reproduce

Just paste the install instruction lazy cod in my init.lua, then use Lazy sync, the error pop out.

Expected Behavior

Hope to support newer lua version to install.

@basheewang, lemme check this. In theory, I defined lua>=5.1 in spec. Can you share your lazy version?

BTW, I am using NvChad2.5 config.

@basheewang, I think you need to install exactly lua 5.1 for lazy.nvim to work (as warning show lua version 5.1 is needed).

You can look at this issue also, #82.

Lua 5.1 is no longer available:

 $  brew install lua@5.1
Error: lua@5.1 has been disabled because it is deprecated upstream! It was disabled on 2024-02-16.

Tried many ways to install this plugin but no luck so far (with rocks). It only worked after completely disabling rocks.

@rodhash, Hi bro, can you share another plugin that you installed successfully with rocks?

[rodhash]

I had a few:

  {
    "vhyrro/luarocks.nvim",
    -- priority = 1000, -- We'd like this plugin to load first out of the rest
    lazy = true,
    event = "VeryLazy",
    config = true, -- This automatically runs `require("luarocks-nvim").setup()`
    opts = {
      rocks = { "fzy", "pathlib.nvim ~> 1.0", "rest.nvim", "neorg", "tree-sitter-http", "lua-curl", "nvim-nio", "mimetypes", "xml2lua" }, -- specifies a list of rocks to install
      -- luarocks_build_args = { "--with-lua=/my/path" }, -- extra options to pass to luarocks's configuration script
    },

    -- config = function ()
    --   require("luarocks-nvim").setup({})
    -- end
  },

But now and then rocks becomes a pain so yesterday I disabled it for good and installing only with Lazy worked fine.

@rodhash, I used asdf-lua to manage my lua versions instead of brew. You can give it try.
