libtolua++ng

By default, Ubuntu does not include the shared object for libtolua++. This needs to be built from source using scons. Once it is built, you can create a dummy package that contains just this file. To do so, just extract an existing debian package, extract the data and control files, make the changes necessary to the control text file. Place the control files into a DEBIAN folder, delete all unnecessary files, and run dpkg -b libtolua++ (or whatever folder you have these in).
