I need to build lua-redis. Lua-dedis depends on luasockets. Luasockets 2.0 fail to build : my question on sockets 2.0 and lua 5.3 I was proposed to use luasockets 3.0. I make them, but they are installed into lua 5.1 and lua 5.3 still doesn't see this library:
root@debian:/home/debian/luasocket-master# make install
make -C src install
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/debian/luasocket-master/src'
install -d /usr/local/share/lua/5.1

How can I change target lua version?
This is not duplicate of my question regarding sockets 2.0, because it is different codebase and different problem. Sockets 2.0 fail to compile and sockets 3.0 fail to install.
A look at the Makefile reveals the following:
install-both:
$(MAKE) clean
@cd src; $(MAKE) $(PLAT) LUAV=5.1
@cd src; $(MAKE) install LUAV=5.1
$(MAKE) clean
@cd src; $(MAKE) $(PLAT) LUAV=5.2
@cd src; $(MAKE) install LUAV=5.2
$(MAKE) clean
@cd src; $(MAKE) $(PLAT) LUAV=5.3
@cd src; $(MAKE) install LUAV=5.3
The src/Makefile uses the variable LUAV to select the include files / install paths / ….
Which means that you can also call this directly for the version you're interested in (and combine all make invocations into one):
make clean all install LUAV=5.3
