You can use the following patch to the PKGBUILD before the pull request is merged:

Cannot seem to build anymore. I think this qualifies for " Please do not flag this package out-of-date unless it fails to build due to upstream changes."
==> Starting build()...
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:1 (cmake_minimum_required):
Compatibility with CMake < 3.5 has been removed from CMake.
Update the VERSION argument <min> value. Or, use the <min>...<max> syntax
to tell CMake that the project requires at least <min> but has been updated
to work with policies introduced by <max> or earlier.
Or, add -DCMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5 to try configuring anyway.
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
Downgrading cmake to 3.31.6-1 fixes it.
Shouldn't the upstream url be updated to https://awesomewm.org/ ?
Yes, the problem is ldoc 1.5.0-2. We have to discuss the topic with this lib. https://www.reddit.com/r/awesomewm/s/5CEQzzX80M
ldoc just got updated in the mirror i use from 1.5.0-1 to 1.5.0-2 and i see the same messsage if trying to start ldoc - so just downgrade to 1.5.0-1
@ravencz i can't reproduce your issue, it works flawlessly with pikaur
i would suggest reinstalling ldoc and if it still not helps - checking your drive for FS problems
awesome-git cannot be compilaed on arch now. I don't check details, but I have responses from more people. I have same issue.

Aborting...
Hi, I have a suggestion regarding the PKGBUILD file: Instead of using make to build and install use cmake commands. This will ensure that this package can be built with other cmake generators. I created a diff file for this: http://0x0.st/HL-8.diff.
@alerque that's awesome news
I just moved lua-lgi to [community]. That or lua-lgi-git from here on the AUR both seem to work fine with this awesome-git build as of now.
If anybody wants to contribute a patch to backport the Lua 5.4 stuff to Awesome 4.3 so we can get it in official packages before the upstream gets around to a release I'm open to submissions.
