What are the specific issues you had with 2.1.2? I could not reproduce it here, htmlparser and lunitx installed with no problems: ``` ] bin/luarocks install htmlparser Installing http://www.luarocks.org/repositories/rocks/htmlparser-0.3.2-1.src.rock... Using http://www.luarocks.org/repositories/rocks/htmlparser-0.3.2-1.src.rock... switching to 'build' mode Missing dependencies for htmlparser: lunitx >= 0.6 set >= 0.2 Using http://www.luarocks.org/repositories/rocks/lunitx-0.7-1.src.rock... switching to 'build' mode Updating manifest for /Users/hisham/.luarocks/lib/luarocks/rocks-5.2 No existing manifest.
