I'll do so.

I just followed the previous version, updating to 'https'. But
https://sawfish.tuxfamily.org/ doesn't actually have information
directly about Librep, while the wiki page the previous commit linked to
does provide information about the package.

0.90.8.3 isn't packaged for distribution though, so it may be
beta-ish. In any case, I don't know how to get it to build, given that
it's not packaged for distribution at this point.

Effectively, then, I'm just updating `sawfish` itself, given the lack of
a need for the comments I had made about versions, so I'll resubmit a
patch just updating the sawfish package.
