I did write a rockspec and apparently got it to work and included it in the sources, but self-upgrade is a feature that I (or anyone else, apparently) never gave much testing. I've never took the risk of releasing it in the wild as a default because it's a feature with great potential to break a whole install if case of any minor glitch.... > Also, the luarocks latest release is still listed on the web site as > 2.0.5; should be automatically updated by a release, or just remove > the latest version number from that page.
