Version mismatch on awesome-wm

[FreddyMaster]

I am getting a Lua core version mismatch. It seems that the recent update to awesome-wm-git from the Arch User Repository which recently switched to lua version 504 has made this package incompatible with this package.

I think you need reinstall lua-pam.

I am getting a very similar error:
version mismatch: app. needs 504.0, Lua core provides 503.0

I am using lua-5.4.4-3 and awesome-4.3-3, so both should be up-to-date.
Is it a problem with my setup or with the module? I am not even sure what the numbers 503/504 are referring to...

check out my repo on gitlab on how i solved the issue. I put the lua pam so file into my awesome wm folder

What solved it for me was installing awesome-git and not awesome. Seems like the current stable version is only 503.

Now that both of us solved our issues, I think this can be closed.
