If I compare the contents of booth lua53-lgi packages, it looks like 0.9.2-8 is missing all the files in /usr/lib and /usr/share/lua.


Edit, since I can't add a new comment on a closed ticket:
I am not sure why, but if I build the package myself with makepkg it works, if I use the repository-version or build it with pkgctl build it, awesome can't use it.

The Log-Output is different.
