Lua51 is otherwise okay, but it lacks the user's possibility of
having plain 'lua' command launch the installed version of Lua. The
older (5.0) 'lua' package has this command; 5.1 uses 'lua51' instead
to avoid any conflicts ('lua51' and 'lua' don't overlap elsewhere).
Should I use 'update-alternatives' as part of the 'lua51' package; if
I do that, wouldn't it actually make 'lua51' package conflict with
'lua', since the latter does _not_ use 'update-alternatives', it
simply installes the %p/bin/lua binary.
Or, can I craft and push to Fink a newer version of 'lua' package,
that contains nothing but the 'update-alternatives' scripts, and does
indeed replace older lua (since using its name).
Thanks,

As a continuation of this: I don't get "sudo fink lua" to work, with
the separate packaging below.

SplitOff I plan to use:
# --- lua ('update-alternatives' command, ignorant of the Lua version
behind it.
#
# Note: Script package dependent on Lua should use 'lua51' package,
and command name
# since that can co-exist with other versions. 'lua' will point
always to the
# most recent one, only _command line users_ should (need to) use it!
#
SplitOff3: <<
Package: lua
Depends: lua51 (= %v-%r)
#---
# 51 = update-alternatives priority (keep in par with Lua
compatibility number)
#
PostInstScript: <<
update-alternatives --install %p/bin/lua lua %p/bin/lua51 51
<<
PreRmScript: <<
if [ $1 != "upgrade" ]; then
update-alternatives --remove lua %p/bin/lua51
fi
<<
Description: Lua command for command line use (same as 'lua51')
