Typelib file for namespace 'Gdk' (any version) not found

[Pablo1107]

I got this error when nice is importing lgi.Gdk. I'm running NixOS and it's probably because of some weird wrapping missing the dependency needed here.

error ...9jf60-lua5.2-lgi-0.9.2-1/share/lua/5.2/lgi/namespace.lua:158: Typelib file for namespace 'Gdk' (any version) not found

Fixed by adding gtk3Support to awesome through an overlay like this:

  nixpkgs.overlays = [
    (self: super:
    {
      awesome = super.awesome.override {
        gtk3Support = true;
      };
    })
  ];
