Hi Johannes, the .spec file shouldn't need it, as it shouldn't be
present in bin after make install due to the if ENABLE_LUA check in
src/lxc/Makefile.am line 177 or so.

If you have it, then it seems likely that lua was enabled when you
built your packages, but of course it won't run if lxc-lua isn't
installed. Maybe we should change the .spec file so lxc-top is in the
lxc-lua package instead of the main package, but this would mean
listing the bin programs individually instead of with a glob.
