Please do not flag this package out-of-date unless it fails to build due to upstream changes.

@Kritiqual the trick to getting this to work is to uninstall awesome-git, uninstall lua53-lgi, then reinstall awesome-git. That worked for me.

@suffer runningmakepkg -src with awesome-git yields the error that dependency lua-lgi is missing, even if I run makepkg -src first with lua-lgi-git.

@Kritiqual All fine here. Try building both (lua-lgi-git and awesome-git) first separately with makepkg -src. Then install together with pacman -U. This will avoid the conflict since you are providing both together.

For the new version (4.3.1347 - too long), it requires lua-lgi-git, but the old version requires lua53-lgi. If I upgrade awesome, it told me that lua-lgi-git is in conflict with lua53-lgi, and it also ask me to remove conflicting package. I chose either "y" or "n", it will cancel the process Edit: I dropped into another tty, uninstall the current version, and rebuild it, lol

@raven2cz 5.4 is Arch's default Lua (and has been for a while), Awesome still requires 5.3. They made changes to the build system to make it easier to build against non-default versions of Lua.

The PKGBUILD needs update. According to https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/3279

https://www.reddit.com/r/awesomewm/comments/mexdzf/awesomegit_cannot_be_compiled_from_the_morning/

The lua 5.4 is default now. The build has to use new build option. Sed is cannot be used now.

Does not build. Upstream changes: https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/3279

it don't fail but it put some breaking changes since the last update like some apps as MS Teams got a black screen when sharing a screen.

lgi currently only has experimental lua 5.4 support, so we should make this package use lua 5.3 until this is fixed
