Vim not running plugins using Lua

[llslim]

 VIM plugins using Lua like neocomplete will not run and will give the annoying message of "needing vim greater than 7.3.885 with lua". vim --version tells that lua is enabled and thersion for Trusty is 7.4.052. Furthermore this command with in vim ":lua print('hello')" would return the linking error: "vim e370 could not load library libluajit-5.1.so.2".

As instructed in this 2013 message:. http://lua.2524044.n2.nabble.com/Problems-with-Lua-in-Vim-tp7654458p7654461.html . Can the '--enable-luainterp' configuration flag in the debian/rules file be change to '--enable-luainterp=dynamic'? LibluaJIT is an Just in Time compiler that is faster than the regular Lua Libraary. It requres the extra compiler flag of --with-luajit.

To get the Lua interpreter working, here is what I am suggesting. Change the lines in the debian/ file

OLD:
ALLINTERPFLAGS+=--enable-luainterp
New:
ALLINTERPFLAGS+=--enable-luainterp=dynamic
+ifneq ($(shell ldconfig -p | grep 'libluajit'),)
     ALLINTERPFLAGS+=--with-luajit
 endif

Hope this is clear and useful.
