Torch test.sh, /usr/bin/lua: module 'paths' not found

I am trying to install torch in linux mint.

Here is my /etc/linuxmint/info output

RELEASE=17.2
CODENAME=rafaela
EDITION="Cinnamon 64-bit"
DESCRIPTION="Linux Mint 17.2 Rafaela"
DESKTOP=Gnome
TOOLKIT=GTK
NEW_FEATURES_URL=http://www.linuxmint.com/rel_rafaela_cinnamon_whatsnew.php
RELEASE_NOTES_URL=http://www.linuxmint.com/rel_rafaela_cinnamon.php
USER_GUIDE_URL=help:linuxmint
GRUB_TITLE=Linux Mint 17.2 Cinnamon 64-bit

I have installed lua.

$ which lua
/usr/bin/lua

$ lua -v 
Lua 5.2.3  Copyright (C) 1994-2013 Lua.org, PUC-Rio

Then, I have installed torch using the following commands

git clone https://github.com/torch/distro.git ~/torch --recursive
cd ~/torch; bash install-deps;
./install.sh

The installation completes successfully.

However, when I type th I get th: command not found.

Also, when I run the test.sh script I get,

/usr/bin/lua
/usr/bin/lua: module 'paths' not found:
    no field package.preload['paths']
    no file '/usr/local/share/lua/5.2/paths.lua'

    no file './paths.so'
stack traceback:
    [C]: in function '_G.require'
    [C]: in ?

what's wrong here?

Adding . ~/torch/install/bin/torch-activate in ~/.bashrc makes the test.sh script run.
