Neither worked. However, after messing around with luarocks, files and
directories, I managed to screw up the whole thing completely. Which was
a good thing to do, because after a fresh install of luarocks from
github, everything was working again. Had to re-install all of my rocks
though.

I wonder if could have to do with the place where luarocks is installed.
It had it in /usr/sbin formerly, now it's in /usr/local/bin. Is
'/usr/local/bin' hard-coded somewhere in luarocks?

Cheers,
