Greetings :-) If you're installing midialsa on debian, you have to find /usr/lib -name 'libasound.*' -print and then invoke luarocks install midialsa ALSA_LIBDIR=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ or wherever. Similarly, if you're installing lgdbm, you have to luarocks install lgdbm GDBM_LIBDIR=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ That's a different variable-name; but it's the same directory... so I thought, wouldn't it be nice if I could just add export ARCH_LIBDIR=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ into my /root/.bash_profile and then (on that host) every install would work first time every time and I could live happily ever after. Does something like ARCH_LIBDIR already exist in luarocks ?
Presumably, an explicitly set eg: GDBM_LIBDIR should override the ARCH_LIBDIR, to handle cases where a library has been hand-compiled into /usr/unusual/lib/ or wherever...
