  I'm trying to use the lua bindings library provided by nimble but even this fails:

  import lua
  Run

  output:

  
  could not import: lua_equal
  Run

  lua version (might I need to use a different version?):

  
  $ lua -v
  Lua 5.2.3  Copyright (C) 1994-2013 Lua.org, PUC-Rio
  Run

  Does anyone have any idea why?

  Works for me with lua 5.1.5 on Linux. Maybe it's because of the version or the library isn't properly installed?

  Does not work for me either with Lua 5.2.3_1 (OS X installed by Homebrew).

  Same error as bozaloshtsh reports.

  But I can install Lua 5.1.5 (brew install lua51) and it works with the nimble package.

  Module itself shows a deprecation warning. I did not anymore testing.

  Ah, I figured it out. Lua 5.2 does work, you just have to import lua52 instead of lua.
