Awesome: Trouble building it from source on Ubuntu 20.04

[rohit901]

I'm trying to build this software from source and when I follow the instructions I'm getting this in the console output.
Could anyone help me with this? I tried googling for the required package but it is not fixing the issue.

make package
Creating build directory and running cmake in it. You can also run CMake directly, if you want.

if the commands above (https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome#debian-based) didn't helped

then please install all the listed build-depencies manually:

https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome#build-dependencies

if some of the deps didn't installed by apt build-dep, then they're just not listed in awesome ubuntu package, so there is no other way as installing it manually

Thank you for the suggestion. I had libxcb-xfixes0 package installed but yet it was not working. Then I installed libxcb-xfixes0-dev package and tried it again, now it built perfectly.
