asterisk users - Jun 2009 - Installing LUA

Hello, all.  The little bit of reading I've done on lua makes me eager
to give it a try.  However, when I try to install it (Asterisk 1.6.1.1
on CentOS 5.3), it is not available in menuselect.  I have installed lua
and lua-devel.  I've seen very little about it in my Internet searches.
What else must I do so that it installs? Thanks - John

Oh, by the way, I'm having a similar problem with speex.  I've installed
speex and speex-devel but no luck although there does seem to be some
known problem with speex_preprocess.  I'm assuming I'm going to have to
install speex from source if I want to use it with Asterisk.  Is that
true? Thanks again - John

What do you see in the config.log in the asterisk source directory with
respect to lua (say, the output of 'grep -i lua config.log)?
