Re: LFS build fails on Ubuntu 9.04 amd64

[Fabio Mascarenhas <mascarenhas@...>]

Hi,

This problem has already showed up at the LuaRocks list, the apt
package for LuaRocks is broken. Uninstall it and install LuaRocks from
source, then reinstall luafilesystem and everything will work. The
mantainer for the package has already been notified.
