Seems like (this version of) awesome isn't compatible with Lua 5.2. Maybe it can be updated? Did you check whether there is a new release available upstream?

[avaland@…]

I did do a selfupdate and upgrade outdated as well. I don't see a different versions of Lua on the site. Downgrade of awesome then?

[avaland@…]

Actually lua is at the most current version 5.2.2 according to the lua website, so I don't think that is the problem.

Ticket (with attached portfile diff) for new version of awesome: #39497

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Has duplicate #39855.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Fixed by updating to 3.5.1 in r111730.
