../meson.build:144:8: ERROR: C++ shared or static library 'lua53' not found
the libdir already has lua53.dll file in there. After I renamed lua53.dll to lua.dll then that worked. But now it was not able to find the executable Lua.
So I made the deps subdirectory and put the lua53 executable and dll in there with all the include files in the deps/include subdirectory. Then I ran the command:
I am trying to build with a pre-build Lua version. meson was not able to find my Lua version. I then defined a lua.pc file:
` prefix=/path/to/my/lua exec_prefix=${prefix} libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib includedir=${prefix}/inc
Name: lua Description: Lua programming language Version: 5.3 Libs: -L${libdir} -llua Cflags: -I${includedir} `
I then get the following error:

meson .. -Dlua_version=5.3 -Dlua_path=/path/to/cffi-lua-0.2.3/build/deps/lua.exethat worked!
Now when I run ninja I get all fatal errors that it cannot find lua.hpp.
So I had to manually edit build.ninja to add the "-Ideps/include" term in the commands. After that it worked.
