That's the *global* directory for Lua plugins.  That's for plugins that should
be considered part of the installation.

The *personal* directory for Lua plugins, which is for your own personal
plugins, is the "plugins" directory under your personal configuration
directory; that's %APPDATA%\Wireshark on Windows (or %USERPROFILE%\Application
Data\Wireshark if %APPDATA% isn't set), and ~/.config/wireshark on UN*X (or
~/.wireshark if ~/.config/wireshark doesn't exist).

That's the directory I was using.

The scan for Lua plugins also searches *subdirectories* of the Lua plugin
directory.
