Please do not flag this package out-of-date unless it fails to build due to upstream changes.

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 I think this qualifies for " Please do not flag this package out-of-date unless it fails to build due to upstream changes."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.

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

alerque commented on 2022-02-03 20:41 (UTC)

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.

Hopefully lua-lgi will be coming to official repos soon...the last tag seems to be patchable to work with Lua 5.4 but I keep coming up with new issues. If I can get it to work then the packaged awesome release should be able to switch to 5.4 too.
