Proposal for Freeze Exception!'
Awesome 3.x packs many new features -and- is the current supported
version. We are currently offered a version that is so old it may be

may be hurtful to keep the old one in there, as being on

sudo apt-get install xmlto asciidoc cmake luadoc libreadline-dev libev-dev
liblua5.1 libimlib2-dev
dget -u --build
Also, for more user configuration
cp -r /usr/share/awesome/themes/ ~/.config/awesome/

also needs xcb-util 0.3.0, which probably needs another ticket
