    • dev-lang/lua is not slotted in funtoo

      The funtoo dev-lang/lua is not slotted, but gentoo ebuild is slooted https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/dev-lang/lua/lua-5.1.5-r200.ebuild.

      The problem is that quick fix for FL-9911 is misleading and does not work on funtoo next.

      In my view solution is to move dev-lang/lua package to  dev-lua/lua:5.1 slot with according eclass bugfix ). Probably in short term there will be bugs with missing dependencies to dev-lang/lua, but in the end there will no split
