First of all, be sure you are using the lua interpreter coming from the
package lua5.1:
$ dpkg -L lua5.1
...
/usr/bin/lua5.1
...
$ update-alternatives --display lua-interpreter
lua-interpreter - auto mode
link currently points to /usr/bin/lua5.1
If it is the case you should get that:
$ lua -e 'print(package.path)'
./?.lua;/usr/local/share/lua/5.1/?.lua;/usr/local/share/lua/5.1/?/init.lua;/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/?.lua;/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/?/init.lua;/usr/share/lua/5.1/?.lua;/usr/share/lua/5.1/?/init.lua
$ lua -e 'print(package.cpath)'
./?.so;/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/?.so;/usr/lib/lua/5.1/?.so;/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/loadall.so
Then check you have no LUA_INIT variable set (or that you have it set in
a consisten way):
echo $LUA_INIT
Then, give a look at the content of the curl package:
$ dpkg -L liblua5.1-curl0
...
/usr/lib/liblua5.1-curl.so.0.0.0
...
/usr/lib/lua/5.1/curl.so
The latter is a symlink pointing to the former file, and is what require
will look for whn you type require'curl'. Also note that the current
directory and /user/local are searched first that /usr/, so you may try
load by mistake some .so you manually compiled.
Cheers.
