Package: lua5.3
Version: 5.3.1-1~bpo8+1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I wanted to set my default lua interpreter to lua5.3
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Tried running
$ sudo update-alternatives --config lua-interpreter
There are 2 choices for the alternative lua-interpreter (providing
/usr/bin/lua).
Selection Path Priority Status
------------------------------------------------------------
* 0 /usr/bin/lua5.2 120 auto mode
1 /usr/bin/lua5.1 110 manual mode
2 /usr/bin/lua5.2 120 manual mode
Similar output for lua-compiler
* What outcome did you expect instead?
/usr/bin/lua5.3 is an option on this list
