    Luarocks now "just works" but this means any rocks you installed previously
    will need to be moved from `lib/luarocks/lib/luarocks` to `lib/luarocks`.
    You'll probably have a better time of it all if you just reinstall them.

# this patch because we set the permissions of /usr/local to root owned
# not user writable to be "good" citizens of /usr/local. Actually LUA is being
# pedantic since all the directories it wants under /usr/local are writable
# so we just return true. Naughty, but I don't know LUA and don't want to
# write a better patch.
