Source: awesome Version: 4.3-8 Severity: serious Tags: forky sid patch awesome's autopkgtests recently begun failing because they use lua5.2, but Debian's lua-lgi no longer supports 5.2.
I'm attaching a patch to use 5.3 instead there. However, I also tried removing the explicit autopkgtest Depends: lua5.3 and the autopkgtests failed. This suggests to me that perhaps awesome needs to have something added like Depends: lua5.3 and adding the dependency to the autopkgtest is hiding this packaging bug. Note that awesome currently fails to build because of https://bugs.debian.org/1118655 That can be temporarily worked around by adding Build-Depends: lua5.1. (Adding 5.2 doesn't work because of the lua-lgi change.) Thank you, Jeremy Bícha
