I'm currently trying to compile suricata (http://suricata-ids.org/) with luajit support on my arch linux distribution with these commands:

./configure --enable-luajit --with-libpcap-includes=/usr/local/pfring/include \
--with-libpcap-libraries=/usr/local/pfring/lib --with-libnss-libraries=/usr/lib \ 
--with-libnss-includes=/usr/include/nss/ --with-libnspr-libraries=/usr/lib \
--with-libnspr-includes=/usr/include/nspr \
--with-libluajit-includes=/usr/local/include/luajit-2.0/ \
--with-libluajit-libraries=/usr/lib/

then:

make

but I get the following errors when I make the project:

detect-luajit.c:(.text+0x46e): undefined reference to `lua_tonumberx'

I first though it was an issue coming from the lua version. So I tried to install both the lua 5.1.5 and 5.2.2, remaking the library and symbolic links as well, and nothing worked. Thanks for your help

  • Those functions are specific to Lua 5.2, while LuaJIT only implements Lua 5.1. – Colonel Thirty Two Oct 14 '13 at 02:17
  • Thanks for this information. But it compiled fine on my ubuntu VM with the same program version of Lua/LuaJit as those on my arch linux. So there must be a solution, but I can't find it =/ – E-Kami Oct 14 '13 at 09:25

In Debian and Ubuntu, the library files are installed into /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/. If arch does the same, your configure line should include: --with-libluajit-libraries=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/
