When I try to upgrade sawfish, I am greeted with:

This isn't acceptable. I've used sawfish for a long time because I admire
its speed and elegance. This really inverts everything that sawfish means to
me. I'm *not* going to run it if it's linked to 30MB (just ask apt) of libs
that I will otherwise never use. I think it's really too bad because I like
sawfish and it won't be easy to replace (since I've writen a bit of custom
code). Now that I am moving to another window manager, I can no longer
maintain rep-xmms whose primary use is through sawfish (using the
sawfish-xmms package).

The only outstanding bug is #147733, which I have verified the existance of
on several unfortunate occasions.
