[Bug 377239] Re: lua 5.1 package installs libraries with wrong name

 

Please use the standard behavior (also in Debian for other packages!) of

/usr/include/lua.h -> /usr/include/lua-DEFAULTVERSION/lua.h
and
/usr/lib/liblua.so -> /usr/lib/liblua-DEFAULTVERSION.so

Title:
  lua 5.1 package installs libraries with wrong name

Status in lua5.1 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The lua 5.1 package installs this libraries :
  lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   18 2009-05-09 22:41 liblua5.1.so -> liblua5.1.so.0.0.0
  lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   18 2009-05-02 09:45 liblua5.1.so.0 -> liblua5.1.so.0.0.0
  -rw-r--r--  1 root root 155K 2009-03-30 12:21 liblua5.1.so.0.0.0

  The names are breaking portability of some applications using it, on most of any others distros, it's :
  liblua.so -> liblua.so.5.1.4
  liblua.so.5 -> liblua.so.5.1.4
  liblua.so.5.1.4

  I don't know in which pakage are theses files, probably in one of this two :
  liblua5.1-0-dev  (5.1.4-2)
  lua5.1  (5.1.4-2)

  I'm using Kubuntu 9.04
