I found the last sentence kind of amusing: the size of liblua5.2.so
plus all transitively required libraries except libc, is almost
exactly 1/100 the size of the similar "transitive size" of
libwx_gtk2u_core-2.8.so ...

Small indeed!

$ size `libtrans /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblua5.2.so.0.0.0 | grep -v '^/lib/' ` | sumcol 4
200520

$ size `libtrans /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libwx_gtk2u_core-2.8.so.0.8.0 | grep -v '^/lib/'` | sumcol 4
21144385
