Comment:

 The lua-luarocks port has subports lua54-luarocks, lua53-luarocks,
 lua52-luarocks, and lua51-luarocks, yet no ports depend on them, other
 than lua-luarocks which depends on lua53-luarocks. All ports that depend
 on luarocks do so via the lua-luarocks port so they all depend on
 lua53-luarocks regardless what lua version they're actually using.

 According to [changeset:9047e79b4d7a98442d18d50e811c621aaf788560/macports-
 ports the last commit to the lua-luarocks port], "The luarock does not
 need to use the same Lua version as the module it is building so long as
 proper config file is installed" so I guess this is supposed to be working
 the way it is. Yet, what is the purpose of the versioned subports? Should
 all the ports that now depend on lua-luarocks be changed to use the
 subport that matches the lua version they use?
