Hi Changqing,

Thanks for the new version, but I believe we have some errors with it:

ERROR: lua-5.5.0-r0 do_configure: Execution of '/srv/pokybuild/yocto-worker/qemux86-64-x32/build/build/tmp/work/x86_64_x32-poky-linux-gnux32/lua/5.5.0/temp/run.do_configure.1720879' failed with exit code 1

The do_configure log is not really verbose:
