I'm fairly new to Linux and am having some problems installing luarocks. I keep getting the error E: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/linux-libc-dev_3.13.0-27.50_amd64.deb 404 Not Found.



I have tried sudo apt-get install luarocks, sudo apt-get install luarocks --fix-missing and sudo apt-get install luarocks update through Terminal but have not been able to fix the issue.



I have also tried to look for the linux folder under http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/ but it doesn't look like it's there although there are a few folders along the lines of linux... under l/.



Is there a way to fix this issue or download luarocks from some place else (luarocks.org seems to timeout for me)?

Luarocks is part of the universe repository - from the Dash, open Software & Updates, then in the Ubuntu tab, make sure the Universe repository is selected (see picture below). To install from the terminal, execute sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get install luarocks, or install from the Ubuntu Software Center, by searching for luarocks
