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
