Hello Sir,

           Installing luarocks using 'apt-get' installs lua5.1 as a prerequisite....and I thought of removing liblua-5.1 and installing 5.2,but I guess that won't be possible since a lot of programs like brasero,vlc and all depend on it.....so I installed luarocks from the tar...and it worked just fine with dependency as lua5.2.

You can install Lua 5.2 with 5.1, no problem; distributions support simultaneous installation of both. You needed to install LuaRocks from source anyway, as the version in Debian/Ubuntu doesn't support Lua 5.2.

 

Now as you said,I removed commands.lua used 'make V=1' and the following was the output.....

This means that the zmacs executable isn't working. Try running it directly to see what error it gives.
