Comment (by halostatue):
Installing `lua-luarocks` installs luarocks 3.9 and lua 5.3. When you
install `lua54-luarocks`, you do not get a `luarocks5.4` binary, and there
is no way to `port select` a `lua` version or `luarocks` version as the
bare binaries (like you can do with `py3*-pip` and `python3*` for either
`python` or `python3`, etc.).
The change for this feels like a regression. I’m not a Lua developer, but
if I am explicitly trying to use Lua 5.4 with luarocks, why do I need Lua
5.3 installed — and will the installation of said rocks be applied to Lua
5.4?
