That's awful. :-) Strangely enough, awful doesn't directly depend on
uri-generic.  Maybe it's uri-common which requires uri-generic >= 2.

uri-common is required by intarweb and spiffy, and both are required by
awful.  In fact there's no version "2", but there's "2.something".
Maybe the message presented by chicken-install is misleading.

You can try to update uri-generic. You just need to run

    $ chicken-install uri-generic

This command will pick the latest uri-generic version.
