Once the little problem with configure is sorted out, the install goes smoothly to /usr/local, which is where it belongs. However, just using apt-get remove luarocks turns out to be more of a nuclear option that I first realized - it pulls in all sorts of useful things (like autotools and lua-dev) as dependencies which it will then try to remove. (At least LR doesn't try to be that 'helpful'). So like the barbarian I am I just did 'sudo rm -rf /usr/share/lua/5.1/luarocks' to clean out the Debian version. This does not strike me as a particularly elegant solution, but things are working fine. steve d. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Symantec Endpoint Protection 12 positioned as A LEADER in The Forrester Wave(TM): Endpoint Security, Q1 2013 and "remains a good choice" in the endpoint security space.
