When you use the `--verbose` option you'll get details about underlying
commands executed and their results (introduced in the 2.1.2 release). That
will probably provide some more clues on to why this fails.
(but it's probably going to be a long list)

Thanks for the response. I tried again with the following process

luarocks. This was successful.
2. Then downloaded luarock 2.1.2. configure. make . sudo make install. All
successful.
3. Then tried to install lunitx. Unsuccessful. The formatted transcript is
provided below

What are the specific issues you had with 2.1.2? I could not reproduce
it here, htmlparser and lunitx installed with no problems:
```
] bin/luarocks install htmlparser
Installing
http://www.luarocks.org/repositories/rocks/htmlparser-0.3.2-1.src.rock...
Using http://www.luarocks.org/repositories/rocks/htmlparser-0.3.2-1.src.rock...
switching to 'build' mode
Missing dependencies for htmlparser:
lunitx >= 0.6
set >= 0.2
