awesome update problem

Hi,

I updated awesome today and now it fails to start.
It seems something is wrong with the package, anybody facing the same problem ?

sense ~  $  pacman -Qs awesome
local/awesome 2.2-1
    A tiling window manager initialy based on a dwm code rewriting.

sense ~  $  awesome
bash: /usr/bin/awesome: cannot execute binary file

sense ~  $  ls -la /usr/bin/awesome
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 145152 2008-03-23 16:46 /usr/bin/awesome

There is no reason

Re: awesome update problem

Hm - I encountered it yesterday - version 2.2-1 did not work. But I upgraded once again - after few hours - and version 2.2-2 works splendid. Beware the small changes in .awesomerc syntax though. So, summing up - wait, upgrade again, check syntax.
Hope it will help,
tami

Yes somehow I uploaded the x86_64 version of awesome 2.2-1 in the i686 repo so that is why it was not working. Obviously above was corrected in the 2.2-2 i686 version.
The x86_64 version is still at 2.2-1 as that should be the correct version.
