Archlinux: The application 'lux' is missing.

[mpapco]

Hi. I have installed lux using method in INSTALL.md for Arch Linux, tried building using "autoconf/.configure/make/make install" but I am still getting following error when I try to run lux:

I am using archlinux(6.0.7-arch1-1) with installed erlang 25.1.2-2 package (I have tried erlang-nox 25.1.2-1, but getting same error).

Error seems to be raised in main method of lux on line
LuxAppDir = require_app(undefined, ?APPLICATION),
then require_app method

   AppDir ->
        case application:load(AppName) of
            ok ->
                AppDir;
            {error, {already_loaded,AppName}}->
                AppDir;
            {error, _} ->	    
  	    io:format("...PAPO in require_app _ AppDir:~s", [AppDir]),
                missing_app(MainOp, AppName)
        end

I have checked issue #19 that looks similar, but setting "export ERL_LIBS=/usr/local/lux/lib" didn't really help.
Is there any further step necessary for Linux/ArchLinux?

Hi, Can you share the printouts from autoconf/.configure/make/make install? What files do you have in the directory /usr/lib/lux/ebin? How do you invoke lux? /Håkan

Hi hawk,
I had installation for ArchLinux and tried autoconf/.configure/make/make install and it worked this time. I think previously I didn't uninstall original lux (pacman -Rsn lux), sorry my bad.
When I do "lux --version" now I am getting output

(ng-venv) mpapco@thinkarch $ lux --version
2.1

It seems there is just ArchLinux way not working (wget https://github.com/hawk/lux/releases/download/lux-2.1/PKGBUILD, makepkg -si).

Thanks,
Marek
