 Change #3749, revision [https://github.com/macports/macports-
 ports/commit/9047e79b4d7a98442d18d50e811c621aaf788560 here], seems to have
 broken `lua54-luarocks` in this sense:

 * Installing `lua54-luarocks` no longer installs the `luarocks` and
 `luarocks-admin` binaries

 To install the `luarocks` binaries you have to install `lua-luarocks`:

 {{{
 $ port contents lua-luarocks

 Port lua-luarocks contains:
   /opt/local/bin/luarocks
   /opt/local/bin/luarocks-5.1
   /opt/local/bin/luarocks-5.2
   /opt/local/bin/luarocks-5.3
   /opt/local/bin/luarocks-5.4
   /opt/local/bin/luarocks-admin
   /opt/local/bin/luarocks-admin-5.1
   /opt/local/bin/luarocks-admin-5.2
   /opt/local/bin/luarocks-admin-5.3
   /opt/local/bin/luarocks-admin-5.4
   /opt/local/etc/luarocks/config-5.1.lua
   /opt/local/etc/luarocks/config-5.2.lua
   /opt/local/etc/luarocks/config-5.3.lua
   /opt/local/etc/luarocks/config-5.4.lua
   /opt/local/share/luarocks/.turd_lua-luarocks
 }}}

 `lua-luarocks` forces the installation of `lua53` and `lua53-luarocks`,
 which is… odd… when I'm only interested in `lua54`. But worse, running
 `luarocks-5.4` actually selects `lua-5.3` by default:

 {{{

 $ luarocks-5.4

 ...

 Configuration:
    Lua:
       Version    : 5.3
       Interpreter: /opt/local/bin/lua5.3 (ok)
       LUA_DIR    : /opt/local/libexec/lua53 (ok)
       LUA_BINDIR : /opt/local/bin (ok)
       LUA_INCDIR : /opt/local/libexec/lua53/include (ok)
       LUA_LIBDIR : /opt/local/libexec/lua53/lib (ok)

    Configuration files:
       System  : /opt/local/etc/luarocks/config-5.3.lua (ok)
       User    : /Users/michaellenaghan/.luarocks/config-5.3.lua (not
 found)

 ...

 }}}

 To get the right version of `lua` you have to specify `--lua-version 5.4`
 on the command-line:

 {{{
 $ luarocks-5.4 --lua-version 5.4

 ...

 Configuration:
    Lua:
       Version    : 5.4
       Interpreter: /opt/local/bin/lua5.4 (ok)
       LUA_DIR    : /opt/local/libexec/lua54 (ok)
       LUA_BINDIR : /opt/local/bin (ok)
       LUA_INCDIR : /opt/local/libexec/lua54/include (ok)
       LUA_LIBDIR : /opt/local/libexec/lua54/lib (ok)

    Configuration files:
       System  : /opt/local/etc/luarocks/config-5.4.lua (ok)
       User    : /Users/michaellenaghan/.luarocks/config-5.4.lua (not
 found)

 ...

 }}}

 Finally, `luarocks_select` no longer seems to work:

 {{{
 $ port select --summary

 Name        Selected      Options
 ====        ========      =======
 ...
 luarocks    none          none
 ...

 }}}
