1.下載包
[root@louis ~]# wget http://www.lua.org/ftp/lua-5.3.1.tar.gz
2.解壓縮
[root@louis lua]# tar zxf lua-5.3.1.tar.gz
3.修改Makefile文件
[root@louis]# cd lua-5.3.1
[root@louis lua-5.3.1]# vim Makefile
INSTALL_TOP= /usr/local/lua
4.運行安裝
[root@louis lua-5.3.1]# make linux
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/lua/lua-5.3.1/src'
make all SYSCFLAGS="-DLUA_USE_LINUX" SYSLIBS="-Wl,-E -ldl -lreadline -lncurses"

cd src && install -p -m 0644 liblua.a /usr/local/lua/lib
cd doc && install -p -m 0644 lua.1 luac.1 /usr/local/lua/man/man1
5.驗證一下
[root@louis lua-5.3.1]# /usr/local/lua/bin/lua

恭喜，安裝成功了！
注意：如果遇到make linux或者make install報錯，先運行
[root@louis lua-5.3.1]# yum install -y readline-devel ncurses-devel
然后重新make linux 和 make install
