It's possible that ${wireshark-src}/cmake/modules/FindLUA.cmake is not
properly detecting Lua 5.2 on your system. Check the path defined by
LUA_LIBRARY (and check LUA_INCLUDE_DIR while you're at it), using these
commands:

   $ cd ${wireshark-src}
   $ cmake -LA | grep LUA

The output should look something like this:

ENABLE_LUA:BOOL=ON
LUA_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH=/Users/tony/src/lua-5.2.1/src/build/include
LUA_LIBRARIES:STRING=/Users/tony/src/lua-5.2.1/src/build/lib/liblua.a
LUA_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=/Users/tony/src/lua-5.2.1/src/build/lib/liblua.a

You can either fix the detection script, or manually edit your path
variables (I use `ccmake`):

Enter the CMake configuration with: $ ccmake .
Press 't' to toggle "Advanced mode" (to show the advanced variables)
Verify (and edit) LUA_INCLUDE_DIR, LUA_LIBRARIES, and LUA_LIBRARY. For the
library paths, enter the full path to liblua.a for Lua 5.2.

Thanks a bunch, that was exactly what I needed to do - the include
path was pointing to 5.1 for some reason, while the link paths were
correctly pointing to 5.2. Everything works now.

I fixed the auto-detection in revision 44669. It wouldn't find an
include path that had a dot between the 5 and the 2 (ie
/usr/include/lua5.2/), but it would find a library path with a dot,
thus the mismatch in versions.
