Sawfish sounds pretty interesting, but I'm surprised to find that it's
not in the fedora or livna repositories, considering others like
fluxbox are. Am I just missing it? Was there a huge falling out? I
started to do the old manual "build from source" bit like in the old
days, but I started running into build issues with its
dependencies.... Yum has made me fat and lazy!
In any case, I have several other options to try, like fvwm2, Openbox,
and Kwin, so it's probably not a big deal.
