I've tried appending lua's package.path, no dice though. LuaJIT just can't seem to find any of the rocks, it's weird. What should I do here?
Two suggestions:
1. Install rocks as root to get them in /usr/local
2. Use ldconfig to update shared library cache
Example:
e@eSammy:~$ sudo luarocks install lsqlite3
[sudo] password for e:
Installing http://luarocks.org/repositories/rocks/lsqlite3-0.8-1.src.rock...
...
lsqlite3 0.8-1 is now built and installed in /usr/local/ (license: MIT/X11)
e@eSammy:~$ sudo /sbin/ldconfig
[sudo] password for e:
e@eSammy:~$ rlwrap luajit
