That's the ideal as far as I am concerned. It will start to get interesting
as we move to Lua 5.0 as I intend to ensure Debian has a dynaloader like
interface so that people can extend Lua in Debian in a way which will make
it able to rival Python and Perl for people who prefer Lua for writing
minature scripts in. I'm a Perl man, but my partner far prefers Lua :)

Well, the Debian package page is:
   http://packages.debian.org/unstable/interpreters/lua40.html
But that might not be as useful as you want -- let me know if you'd prefer
something more.

Aye, or report bugs against the lua40 packages on bugs.debian.org if you
want to do it that way :)
