What are the libraries needed to compile LUA for Linux? I have not found very much on the forum, and very little regarding LUA on Linux. I am running Debian

You probably already have what's needed to build Lua: http://www.lua.org/faq.html#1.1
Also, see here: http://lua-users.org/wiki/BuildingLua

If I may ask, why are you building from source? On debian you could simply do `apt-get install liblua5.1-0-dev` for the 5.1 development libraries, and `apt-get install lua` for the Lua interpreter binaries.

Probably a misunderstanding, I am building the EqEmu source.

What about libboost-all-dev is it also required?

Boost appears to be a dependency for EQEmu, yes.
