Did you read http://awesome.naquadah.org/wiki/Awesome_3.4_to_3.5 ? Can you reproduce the issue with a fresh/clean rc.lua?

The other thing is, there might be a conflict with the default desktop running. Does Awesome work for you if selected from the login screen?

Don`t work, tested in lxdm.
Comment 3 Lars Seipel 2013-05-27 10:35:32 UTC 
I just stumbled upon something similar and in my case it seems to be a missing dependency.

Search your logs for:
WARNING **: Failed to load shared library 'libcairo-gobject.so.2' referenced by the typelib: libcairo-gobject.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Install cairo-gobject and awesome should start. If this is indeed the case for you please confirm. Otherwise I will file a new report.
Comment 4 Lars Seipel 2013-05-27 11:14:00 UTC 
If my understanding of lua-lgi is right awesome's 'require("lgi").cairo' leads to dlopen() of libcairo-gobject through lua-lgi -> libgirepository -> glib's g_module_open().

So adding an explicit dependency to awesome seems correct. Thomas?
Comment 5 Pavlo Rudyi 2013-05-28 10:17:15 UTC 
> Install cairo-gobject and awesome should start.
Thank you, Lars. It works.

Thomas, please add a depends cairo-gobject.
