Re: problem with luarocks-2.0.1

[Leo Razoumov <slonik.az@...>]

I think I figured it out.

It only happens when I configure "self-contained luarocks
installation" in accordance with the documentation
http://www.luarocks.org/en/Installation_instructions_for_Unix

export LUA_DIR=$HOME/mylua/
./configure --prefix=$LUA_DIR --sysconfdir=$LUA_DIR/luarocks
--force-config --with-lua=$LUA_DIR

Removing --sysconfdir=$PREFIX/luarocks resolved the issue.
