Hi Max,

At this point I got this CMake warning:

CMake Warning:
  Manually-specified variables were not used by the project:

    LMT_PERMIT_LUA_LIBRARIES

>     $ cmake --build . --parallel 16

Then the build process succeeded.

Then I copied luametatex to my TL bin dir and I ran:

$ lldb --arch x86_64 -- luametatex --ini --lua=$(kpsewhich luat-cod.lmt) $(kpsewhich cont-en.mkxl)

Here is what I got:

Quitting LLDB will kill one or more processes. Do you really want to proceed: [Y/n] Y
