Prevent LUA from being used

Hello,

Is there any way to disable or otherwise prevent the LUA module loading at run-time?

I still have this old problem https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=107553 (on 32-bit Linux *only*) and I'd rather disable LUA and have limited functionality than just crash totally and have no functionality and an unsupported platform.

I mean, I know there's no LibVLC API function to do it, but is there any way, other than disabling LUA at build time? I can solve the issue by removing the LUA scripts, but I don't really want to tell my users to do that.

You can also remove the Lua plugin from the installation, or remove all Lua scripts.

No, lua is now a core of VLC. Your platform must be fixed.We cannot do it for you.
