Re: Newbie: need help with lua socket install

["Pete Kay" <petedao@...>]

Hi Gary,

Are you referring to:

apt-get install lua51
apt-get install luasocket-devel

Currently, Debian only supports 5.0 instead of 5.1

If possible, I would like to get it working from source code.

 

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)
