If I remember correctly, Ole's original version uses [lua]. It fails here on Ubuntu 11 and worked after I changed it to [lua5.1].

I'd prefer to have something working out of the box, without forcing the installer to set a couple of links beforehand. Earlier versions of configure.ac somehow automatically discovered the Lua version.

May be we can re-implement something like this again?
