Because Debian already ships lua as a separate package. If a program links
to it, then the automatic dependency handler will cause lua to be
installed. Of course, in the particular case of lua, it is small and
doesn't matter much, but since the fix is easy to implement, it would be
better to fix it. On the other hand, installing python (which is also
linked to the lua interface library) is not a small package, so there is
more pressure to try to fix it.

Hmm... it seems I got it wrong: the interface library is for both lua and
python? I thought there was one for lua and one for python.
