I built a simple module, called by a likewise simple program.
after some searching around I found that by setting LUA_PATH with
export LUA_PATH=/usr/lib64/lua/luarocks/share/lua/5.1/?.lua;
I succeeded in running program + module.
I don't know, though, wether this works in more complicated
projects, but you might give it a try. If it works, you should
set LUA_CPATH too (if you want to include C-modules).
