Besides the documentation, doesn't mention a couple of things, that the description is required for DEB, --uti for MAC and how to actually use the conf.lua.

Hello! Thanks for the bug report. I have pushed fixes and more debugging output. Could you please test with latest master?

luarocks install --dev love-release # --local

4682ffe should fix the issue with the windows download. I think I know where the issue with macOS comes from, but I wasn’t able to reproduce it. I’ve added notes about required parameters in ff33b0f.

About the configuration, it is explained in the README: just add a subtable releases to the t table that is passed to love.conf. The fields are listed.

These informations can be stored in your conf.lua file to be used later.

function love.conf(t)
  t.releases = { --[[ … ]]-- }

Just to be clear, installing through luarocks should get me that?

$ luarocks install love-release --local

No. I have the same bug with 2.0.12-2 now, I will investigate. But could you try the --dev flag? It will install love-release straight from master with the latest commits.

Thanks! The Windows issue seems to be gone (note that I can't test whether they actually work, but something got built without error).
