Hi Hisham
I'm testing the luarocks-2.1.0-rc2 version, I was wondering if there is any
way to disable this feature? Like a flag, so I could try beta version of a
rock without having to reinstall the previous version if something went
wrong.
I tried to find documentation about it, but I couldn't.
There's --keep for disabling the feature from the command line and
keep_other_versions=true for the configuration file. I put the
information in the help output for `luarocks build --help` but forgot
to do the same for `luarocks install --help` and `luarocks make
--help`! Thanks for the heads up!
It would be difficult to add an option to 'luarocks purge'
(--only_old_versions or something like that) that would remove all
installed versions of rocks except the newest of each one?
A different approach would be to add an 'undo_install' command.
Anyway LR would have to keep the current version of a rock when installing
a new one to allow that "rollback"...
Note that this is only brainstorming. I can happily live with
LR the way it is now :-)
Regards,
