I have been failing to get LUA_PATH/package.path working right for
nearly two major versions of Lua, now.
I'm using lua 5.1, from the Debian package on one machine, and a
custom-compiled lua 5.1 (using 64-bit signed ints for numbers) on
another machine. Both suffer this same problem.
The console snippet below describes the nature of this error in full,
I suspect.
[tiogshi@tiogshi-desktop ~/Programming/sim-lua]$ echo $LUA_PATH
;;./?.lc;./?.lua;/home/tiogshi/.lua/?.lua;/home/tiogshi/.lua/?.lc
[tiogshi@tiogshi-desktop ~/Programming/sim-lua]$ lua

Any suggestions?
