Luarocks error on ubuntu

I am trying to run Neuraltalk2 on Ubuntu. But I am getting an error as follows:

parag@parag:~/torch$ sudo luarocks install nn
[sudo] password for parag: 

Error: No results matching query were found.

I followed the following steps uptill now:

sudo curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/torch/ezinstall/master/install-deps | bash
sudo git clone https://github.com/torch/distro.git ~/torch --recursive
sudo cd ~/torch;
sudo ./install.sh
sudo source ~/.bashrc

Please help!

Try running this all without sudo. The last line, especially, sudo source ~/.bashrc does not work because source is meant to operate on the shell you are currently running. If you run it with sudo, it will load .bashrc into the temporary subshell created by sudo (in practice having no effect).

Your error message indicates that luarocks was installed correctly, but it failed to find the rock. Make sure the name of the rock is correct, try searching it with the luarocks search command, and check your configuration running luarocks with no arguments (it will display the name of your config files in use, helping you to troubleshoot the issue).
