`make install` will do that, but remember Debian and PUC-Rio use
different default trees.
I do the following:
1. Lua 5.2 installed by `apt-get install lua` in the /usr tree.
2. LuaJIT ditto.
3. Lua 5.3 installed by `make linux; make install` in /usr/local.
4. Lua 5.1 `make linux` but no make install in /usr/local/src.
5. Symlinked if needed to provide commands lua51, lua52, lua53,
lua53 in /usr/local/bin.
6. My $HOME/bin has a symlink to override command lua if
I don't like it.
