In this project's README

Compatible with Lua 5.1, 5.2, 5.3 and LuaJIT

My system has Luajit and Lua 5.1, but it needs Lua 5.3 to be installed

Missing dependencies for cqueues:
lua == 5.3

Cqueues does work with 5.1. I think this is a symptom of a too-old version of luarocks.

Try installing LuaRocks from source to get cqueues working with 5.1.

haven't tried it, but closing it because it is not really an issue of this project.
