What you theoretically may do is add a PPA to your sources.list. E.g.:

[code]
d...@minibox:~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list | grep -A1 awesome
#--awesome--#
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/klaus-vormweg/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
d...@minibox:~$
[/code][1]

That will provide you with versions as up-to-date as the PPA maintainer
sees fit through the usual package distribution mechanism.
Welcome to the world of regular config merging -.-

How far that solution is compatible with your personal security policy I
may not answer.

[1] This is no promotion for this particular PPA, others are easily
found. I have to say though, that Mr Vormweg seems to keep the software
in his PPA rather up-to-date.
