Of course anything that requires a separate packaging step is going to
introduce some extra delay (an "everything included" giant blob is far
worse in this respect, of course).

Is luarocks any better in this regard (I've never used it)?  Can it
seamlessly construct and install a "rock" from a package's source repo?
