OK, I found the documentation at http://luarocks.org/en/Config_file_format which says that LUADIR is read from the variables table of my config file. So I set: variables = { LUADIR = "/home/rrt/local/share" } in my LUAROCKS_CONFIG file, but this seems to have no effect. -- http://rrt.sc3d.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BlackBerry® DevCon Americas, Oct. 18-20, San Francisco, CA http://p.sf.net/sfu/rim-devcon-copy2 _______________________________________________ Luarocks-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/luarocks-developers
