Title:
  Lua dynamic libraries isn't enabled

Status in scite package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  SciTE in ubuntu 18.04 has the Lua library embedded, and compiled
  without dynamic libraries enabled. This makes it impossible to load
  Lua modules which is in the dynamic library on SciTE >= 4.0, when it
  started using Lua 5.3.

  On later versions (SciTE >= 4.1.0) I have built Lua without using the
  embedded Lua library but using Debian-packaged shared object instead,
  and there this isn't a problem. (I am one of the Debian maintainers of
  SciTE).

  This leaves the version in 18.04, where this still is a problem.

  See upstream bug at 
  https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/2058/

  for a patch. Another alternative is to backport version 4.1.0 or later
  to Ubuntu 18.04.
