The package name should match that of other procedural-language
extensions for PostgreSQL:

    postgresql-plperl
    postgresql-plpython
    postgresql-plruby
    postgresql-pltcl

It also goes against the recommendations in the Best Packaging
Practices section of the Developer's Reference
<URL:http://www.debian.org/doc/developers-reference/ch-best-pkging-practices#s-bpp-pkg-synopsis>.

On that basis, a better synopsis would be:

    PL/Lua procedural language for PostgreSQL

which would also match that of existing procedural-language packages.
