# Pacman widget for AwesomeWM
|
|
|
|
This widget displays the number of upgradable Pacman packages. Clicking the icon reveals a scrollable list of available upgrades. A full system upgrade can be performed from the widget via Polkit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
`lxpolkit` is the default [Polkit agent](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Polkit).
|
|
|
|
The widget also uses the `checkupdates` script from the `pacman-contrib` package.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Installation

|
|
|
Clone the repo under **~/.config/awesome/** and add the following to **rc.lua**:
|
|
|
|
```lua
