This is expected, we use the variable LUA_CMODULE defined using pkg-config
to find where lua looks for the modules, so you must be sudo do install.

prefix only chooses where the liblua5.1sofia.so will be installed, it must
be on a system directory (or in a path that the system will look to find the
shared libraries) because when you use glib the system must find the
liblua5.1sofia.so and load it, the prefix right now has nothing to do to
where the lua modules are going to be installed.

don't know if changing something will make the manual install of the lib
without luarocks break =/
