This project uses loadconf to execute the conf.lua file in a safe environment, require is not included in this sandbox.

This is related to issue #27 and #49.

If you want to provide a conf.lua that works both in LÖVE and love-release, make sure you first check if you are running on LÖVE with something similar to:

if love.filesystem then
  --This is LÖVE
end

I don't have a config for love-release. Here is my conf.lua: https://github.com/egordorichev/neko8/blob/master/conf.lua

It was running ok, but something happened and it broke. Debian package building was broken all time.

love-release tries to load conf.lua even if you don't have specific configurations for love-release

Try to do something like

if not require then --Detect that this isn't LÖVE but love-release
  love.conf = function () end
else
  --Your code goes here
end

Oh, that works. Thank you :)
