[Ipe-discuss] Does Ipe require the lua interpreter?

Hi,

The prerequisite packages for building Ipe 7.0.10 include
liblua5.1-0-dev.  The binary is linked with liblua, so that library is
required at runtime.

Is the lua interpreter also required at runtime?  

If not required, is it useful in any way to have the lua interpreter
on the system running ipe?

Thanks,
-Steve

[For the curious, I'm trying to decide whether the Debian ipe package
needs to depend on the lua interpreter, merely "Suggest" it, or
neither; c.f. Debian bug #561721.]
