"Attempt to index a nil value" error on RHEL 8.5 #39

Closed jg110 closed 2 years ago

jg110 commented 2 years ago

I've used digestif on several Fedora systems without a problem, but after installing it on a RHEL system with luarocks via luarocks install --local digestif I get the following error when I try to run it (just running digestif in my home directory):

kpsewhich: unrecognized option '-var-brace-value=TEXMF'
/usr/bin/lua: /home/jg110/.luarocks/share/lua/5.3/digestif/config.lua:26: attempt to index a nil value

What does this command return on RHEL? kpsewhich -var-brace-value=TEXMF. Also, what is kpsewhich -version for you?

$ kpsewhich -var-brace-value=TEXMF
kpsewhich: unrecognized option '-var-brace-value=TEXMF'
$ kpsewhich -version
