Actually, I feel that it should be right up there in the initial instructions or else it will not be installed properly given the root and wheel system properties of /usr/ . . .. I searched around on the internet, and most bash > lua won’t work command concern were fairly old, and most replies were of the fix the PATH sort of things.
I used the sudo make install combined command, so I do not know if Sudo make or sudo install will do it or if one needs the combined command, but I DO know that it will install and get folks up and running; the admin password is necessary and get the right permissions going. 
Thank you
