Actually, the -f didn't work. I also tried adding this in the end of
my rc.lua:
-- Use nitrogen to set the wallpaper
os.execute("nitrogen --set-scaled

But it didn't work, and the background is still non-stretched (and I
did quit and re-open awesome).

Well, the -f worked, but so did nitrogen. However, nitrogen also
enabled transparency on terminals, so I'll probably use nitrogen.

As http://www.linuxcertif.com/man/1/awsetbg/en/ says:
OPTIONS
-f file
Set fullscreen wallpaper.
awsetbg -f <wallpaper>
You can try this on the terminal or on the run command widget,
make
sure it works, then you can update your set bg variable on rc.lua.

Write in ~/.xinitrc next line (without the quotes, before the line "exec
awesome"): "feh --bg-scale /path/to/image &".
This should help solve the problem.
