+
+  Neovim now uses luajit-openresty as the Lua provider. Many neovim plugins
+  compile some of their code (Packer does this, as do many LSP plugins).
+  Neovim will produce errors and fail to load the plugins.
+
+  Deleting and reinstalling any plugins that produce errors should fix the
+  startup.
+
+  If you use Packer, you also want to delete the startup cache:
+
+  # rm -rf ~/.config/nvim/plugin/packer_compiled.lua
