I've reached my limit now, it's almost 1am and I started searching at 9. I've been wanting to try Lua in server side development and I found the best looking option is Kepler.
http://www.keplerproject.org/
I followed all the instructions, installed luarocks. Entered the command: luarocks install kepler-xavante and it started installing. Then kapow, it says I'm missing every dependency under the sun. Here's what I got:

Googled, googled and googled some more. Then when google failed me I went and blasphemed and searched yahoo and msn. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated. You're my last resort.
