The lua script issue is not limited to pkg installing itself. For example:

[29/124] Extracting dbus-1.12.20_3: 100%
pkg: Failed to execute lua script: [string "args = {}..."]:11: attempt to call a nil value (field 'stat')
pkg: lua script failed
[30/124] Upgrading ca_root_nss from 3.55 to 3.58...
[30/124] Extracting ca_root_nss-3.58: 100%
pkg: Failed to execute lua script: [string "args = {}..."]:11: attempt to call a nil value (field 'stat')
pkg: lua script failed
