Has anyone tried using make_manifest to maintain a rocks tree for satisfying dependencies provided by an external package manager? Usually, if I `apt-get install lua-markdown` that module won't be seen by LuaRocks. But I should be able to drop rockspecs for packages installed by apt and build a manifest that describes these packages. LuaRocks can then query this tree to find dependencies. But I don't want LR to try to install or remove anything from that tree. -- tom <tellia...@whoopdedo.org> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The best possible search technologies are now affordable for all companies.
