Deken is there because of the lack of a system wide package manager on 
Windows and Mac OS. As a general rule, on Linux, try the package manager 
first, then Deken if you can't find it there.

instead of [import] use [declare].
[declare -lib] for libraries with one binary containing all objects
[declare -path] for libraries where every object is a separate file

Yes
