You want to install the lua library "alien". luarocks *will* compile alien for you. However, the alien library requires that you have libffi already compiled and available before alien can be compiled. luarocks can't do this for you, as it doesn't know where to get libffi from, or how to compile it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Transform Data into Opportunity.
