Re: Luaxml is not found on Ubuntu 13.10 64 bits

[luciano de souza <luchyanus@...>]

Yes, I have a more serious problem. I added /usr/local/lib/lua/5.1 in
PATH in /etc/environment. However, it's not produce any effect.

I try also consult /etc/luarocks/config.lua:

rocks_servers = {
   [[http://luarocks.org/repositories/rocks]]
}

rocks_trees = {
   home..[[/.luarocks]],
   [[/usr/local]]
}

I don't understand very well, but it seems to be OK.

Using the command "man luarocks", I verified is really outdated: 15 june 2012.

The problem is newer deb packages is not available on Ubuntu. C
compilations are a nightmare. I am not a C programmer. Even though,
when you get to install, it's not easy to uninstall.
