installed library contains call to non-existent luaL_register #147

Hi, I am new to Lua. I have lua 5.3.5 and luarocks 3.1.3 installed on my Gentoo system. Invoking luarocks install lmapm generates and installs the library /usr/lib64/lua/luarocks/lib/lua/5.3/mapm.so which refers to luaL_register which doesn't exist in Lua 5.3 any more.

Here my commands export LUA_CPATH=/usr/lib64/lua/luarocks/lib/lua/5.3/mapm.so lua Lua 5.3.5 Copyright (C) 1994-2018 Lua.org, PUC-Rio

mp=require("mapm") error loading module 'mapm' from file '/usr/lib64/lua/luarocks/lib/lua/5.3/mapm.so': /usr/lib64/lua/luarocks/lib/lua/5.3/mapm.so: undefined symbol: luaL_register

I find it strange that setting LUA_CPATH=/usr/lib64/lua/luarocks/lib/lua/5.3 gives an error saying that LUA_CPATH points to a directory which should be the normal case for a 'PATH'.

What am I missing? Many thanks for a hint, Helmut
