Windows libsplib broken about publisher HOT 11 CLOSED

Version 4.17.21 seems to work with Windows 10 64 bit. Not that I am happy with the solution, but at least it works for me here...

This looks like the issue is related to the new XPath parser. If you use --xpath=luxor then it should work. I'll provide a fix when I come back from vacation in a week.

Please re-open if you don't agree, your feedback is very valuable!

The symbol luaopen_libsplib has not been exported, so it seems.

Many thanks for your fast fix, @pgundlach.

I'm in a hurry and I made two automated tests (drag and drop).

One worked, the other one failed.

But the latter has a different cause (which I'll have to investigate further 😅).

Many thanks for your help.

@pgundlach,

I get this error message with a script that works fine with 4.17.0 (this error message is triggered by version 4.17.21):

Sorry, but I have no idea which XML code may be triggering this.

Many thanks for your help.

Just added xpath=luxor to %APPDATA%\speedata\publisher.cfg.

It fixed the issue.

I'd like to close this issue. There is a workaround and I think I have fixed all these issues.

It works perfectly fine, @pgundlach.
