Hey Lua community!

I'm trying to install lua-imlib2 on my Ubuntu Server by using luarocks install lua-imlib2
Now, it finds the package and tries to install, but then gcc complains about a fatar error regarding a missing lua.h

I have the lua dev packages installed and /usr/include/lua5.1/lua.h exists, but it keeps complaining about the
missing lua.h. What am I doing wrong here? (Because, it must be my mistake somewhere).

I tried Googling for a solution, but I couldn't find one.

LuaRocks output:

[root@xoruserver:/usr/include/lua5.1]$:luarocks install lua-imlib2
