gollark: It would be nice to at least fetch from an alternate repo or something, like cargo can.
gollark: That's kind of annoying. I suppose I don't really need 5.3 features right now.
gollark: Nope, still installs `luabitop` and does the `bit.c:79:2: error: #error "Unknown number type, check LUA_NUMBER_* in luaconf.h"` thing.
gollark: Installing Lapis off LuaRocks seems to bring in an old version of `pgmoon` which requires `luabitop` which doesn't work beyond 5.2, is there a way to make LuaRocks pull directly off the git repository or something?
gollark: Huh. This does *also* look asynchronous. I guess I can probably deal with it being mildly less efficient, I don't need massive throughput.
