The problem seems to be that in the second machine datafile is not
producing the right path. It is producing
'/home/<>/.luarocks/share/lua/5.1/loverocks/templates/love9' but not
'/home/<>/.luarocks/share/lua/5.1/loverocks/0.0.3-1/templates/love9'.
We recently modified datafile to make it stop going upwards all the
way through the directory structure, so I suspect that your datafile
version is _older_ and works best and the other one in _newer_ and
it's broken. I'll take a look and update datafile if it's the case.
