Re: Newbie: need help with lua socket install

[gary ng <garyng2000@...>]

there is no need to compile luasocket yourself if you
are running debian.

If you do want to build them all, the sequence(if
memory serve) is :

lua 5.1.3
make linux
make install

luasocket
make 
make install

make sure luasocket use the same directory as lua
5.1.3(I believe both default to /usr/local rather than
the debian default of /usr)
