python3 is installed, python2 is not in the OpenBSD repos

Will look into how to add these.

I got elinks to compile. I had to make some tweaks to the source code, because the repo is old and doesn't seem to be tested against this version of OpenBSD. It seems to load Google though so I think its working OK.

OpenBSD removed python2 from their source list but its still in their package archive.

https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.8/packages/amd64/

python2 is installed now.

I'll leave this open for a few days in case you run into any trouble.

I added luarocks as well. Was able to install global modules as root and was able to run a test file.

I see that its possible to install modules without using

luarocks install --local [modulename]

... but wasn't sure how to get this to work. Haven't written lua before. Seems like this could allow users to manage modules without granting root.

Would be interested to hear if you think this would work. I'm going to do some digging to see how other tildes approach allowing users to manage lua modules.
