A new Flyspray task has been opened. Details are below. User who did this - Slick (SlickDude)
Attached to Project - awesome
Summary - Menubar and Luajit2 Error
Task Type - Bug Report
Category - Lua libraries
Status - Unconfirmed
Assigned To - Operating System - Linux
Severity - Low
Priority - Normal
Reported Version - git/master
Due in Version - Undecided
Due Date - Undecided
Details - This is more of a bug notification than a standard bug report due to 
Luajit not being officially used in awesome  I just would like you guys to be 
aware of it.

Apparently due to how the author of Luajit interprets the lines() function this 
function from the new Menubar code fails when one uses Luajit as a backend. 
Standard Lua works fine with this code however.

lib/menubar/utils.lua.in

function parse_dir(dir)
   local programs = {}
   local files = io.popen('find '.. dir ..' -maxdepth 1 -name 
"*.desktop"'):lines()
   for file in files do
       table.insert(programs, parse(file))
   end
   return programs
end
