Weird, make_manifest is the usual method. make_manifest scans the
rocks dir (.../lib/luarocks/rocks, the one with one subdirectory for
each rock) to rebuild the manifest; inside each subdir there's a
rock_manifest file, and the whole manifest is built from those. If
that directory is gone, there's no way to rebuild the manifest
unfortunately.
