Package: awesome
Version: 4.3-7+b2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
When trying to use the gtk theme awesome will output this message to xsession-
errors or to the set logs file (depending on how the user ran awesome):
"awesome: Can't load GTK+3 introspection. Seems like GTK+3 is not installed or
`lua-lgi` was built with an incompatible GTK+3 version.
awesome: Can't load GTK+3 theme. Using 'xresources' theme as a fallback."
this is usually because the gio binds for gtk3 and gtk4 are present, something
rather common to happen in a trixie system, the issue was already fixed
upstream in PR:
https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/3297
the provided patch is outright the changes from the PR, nothing more nothing
less.
