Agreed. I've updated all lua port files regarding conflicts.
What we would want to do is make the ports not conflict.
I think if port "lua" becomes Lua 5.3, you'll have to verify all other dependent ports still work in deployment, or change them to use "lua52". For example, wireshark-devel will not compile with Lua 5.3. Lua 5.3 is not API/ABI compatible with Lua 5.2. (nor was 5.2 with 5.1, but the differences are even bigger with 5.2->5.3) Really the differences between Lua X.Y versions are like Python 2 vs. Python 3. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/46621#comment:7> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
