The last lua5.2 release was on 07 Mar 2015. As upstream will not release any other version, we should get lua5.2 out of Debian as the least-used lua version that is still in the archive. I have filed "low-hanging fruit" bugs for the packages that support other lua versions as well and have blocked this issue on them.
The packages that need more investigation are:
dnsmasq
kyua
lutok
lcm
qosmic
tolua
uwsgi
The rest of the reverse dependencies are depending on "lua5.2 | lua5.x" (OR depends), so they should not be a problem.
This is incorrect. Any package depending on lua5.2 as first alternative
is instantly RC-buggy after the removal of lua5.2 due to Debian policy
2.2.1 which requires that the first alternative always must be
satisfiable with packages from main.
