Coalescing entries can be done by 'scan-copyrights' or 'cme update dpkg-
copyright' (provided by cme and libconfig-model-dpkg-perl packages)
lua files are not scanned by default (yet), so these tools needs a bit of help:
$ echo '---
check:
suffixes:
- lua' > debian/copyright-scan-patterns.yml
Then run 'scan-copyrights' or 'cme update dpkg-copyright'

All the best
