The problems is that the configure.ac file is hard coded for lua5.1.  See

https://forum.suricata.io/t/lua-5-4-3-and-suricata-undefined-reference-error/1906/5

I created a patch to change configure.ac to use lua5.3 (I'm using Zeus).
Did you save that patch in the suricata/files dir and then append SRC_URI with "file://{patch name}" ?

But when I "bitbake suricata" I'm getting the same error because it's not updating the configure file.  Do I also have to fix the configure file or is there some way I can force a autoreconf?
When I try building this on master, I have to use luajit as it provides shared libraries and lua does not. The symbol 'rs_dns_lua_get_rrname' and others are not found. i don't see them in the latest lua nor luajit repos so I don't know why they are being referenced.

The version I am building is 6.0.4 which uses Rust so I don't know what would take to fix zeus.

The Suricata install site also says to install

liblua5.1-dev

Does this mean that Suricata needs lua 5.1 (which is very old)??
For Zeus the lua recipe is 5.3.5.

Do I need to create a recipe for lua 5.1?


seems so, lua5.1 is not ABI compatible with newer Lua, so if an app needs this version then
you will have to add it, perhaps see if you can just use internal version or something like that

I added this to the recipe and it appears the liblua it  is
looking for
does not exist.

PACKAGECONFIG[lua] = "--enable-lua
--with-liblua-includes=${STAGING_INCDIR}
--with-liblua-libraries==${STAGING_LIBDIR}, --disable-lua,lua, lua"

or your distribution:

It may be  the lua recipe.  I only see the static lib 'liblua.a'
