Hi everyone,

Following the installation of coppeliasim (Vrep) i run into this issue where when i launch the program i get this error :

~/CoppeliaSim_Edu_V4_0_0_Ubuntu18_04$ ./coppeliaSim
./coppeliaSim: error while loading shared libraries: liblua5.1.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I tred to install liblua5.1 but the problem persists.

Information about my setup :

I'm not profecient enough in Linux and i find it hard to overcome this problem.
Any help would be much appreciated.
