The details depend on Lua version and where you installed it to, but this should suffice: rm -rf /usr/local/bin/luarocks* /usr/local/share/lua/5.1/luarocks /usr/local/lib/luarocks I didn't add an uninstall directive to the Makefile because it's all too easy for it to do the wrong thing if the config flags don't match what was done at installation time. -- Hisham ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Flow-based real-time traffic analytics software.
