Thank you for comments, Fergus. Please install a corresponding version of liblua-devel package. It will supply real objects, to which the symlinks point. In the current packaging, only one lua version can install either 5.3 or 5.4, yet. And, when we use files for development, we need to install a corresponding version of liblua-devel package. It is intended that unnumbered files should have a common consistent version, and symlinks are made and modified when a specific version of lua package is installed.
