Here I confused myself. Usually I install awesome to global paths /usr and /etc instead of the automatically set /usr/local/*. I meant, this causes trouble for uncautiois admins like me as the self compiled wm is overwritten and likely to crash. For the issue this makes no difference though. The last installation added awful to /usr/local/share/awesome/lib/awful where lua is not searching in. $ ls /usr/local/share/awesome/lib/awful/ -l insgesamt 224 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1669 Jun 20 06:23 autofocus.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2104 Jun 20 06:23 button.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 28353 Jun 20 06:23 client.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6886 Jun 20 06:23 completion.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 642 Jun 20 06:23 dbus.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5902 Jun 20 06:23 ewmh.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1193 Jun 20 06:23 init.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3053 Jun 20 06:23 keygrabber.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2844 Jun 20 06:23 key.lua drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jun 20 06:29 layout -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 22124 Jun 20 06:23 menu.lua drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jun 20 06:29 mouse -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8324 Jun 20 06:23 placement.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 18005 Jun 20 06:23 prompt.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1677 Jun 20 06:23 remote.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6625 Jun 20 06:23 rules.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3993 Jun 20 06:23 screen.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1489 Jun 20 06:23 startup_notification.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 17822 Jun 20 06:23 tag.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8559 Jun 20 06:23 titlebar.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7231 Jun 20 06:23 tooltip.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13893 Jun 20 06:23 util.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10155 Jun 20 06:23 wibox.lua drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jun 20 06:29 widget $ ls /usr/share/awesome/lib/awful/ ewmh.lua icccm.lua keygrabber.lua $ lua Lua 5.1.5 Copyright (C) 1994-2012 Lua.org, PUC-Rio > local awful = require("awful") stdin:1: module 'awful' not found: no field package.preload['awful'] no file './awful.lua' no file '/usr/local/share/lua/5.1/awful.lua' no file '/usr/local/share/lua/5.1/awful/init.lua' no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/awful.lua' no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/awful/init.lua' no file '/usr/share/lua/5.1/awful.lua' no file '/usr/share/lua/5.1/awful/init.lua' no file './awful.so' no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/awful.so' no file '/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/lua/5.1/awful.so' no file '/usr/lib/lua/5.1/awful.so' no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/loadall.so' stack traceback: [C]: in function 'require' stdin:1: in main chunk [C]: ?
