Welcome to the Lain wiki!

Dependencies
------------

Package | Requested by | Reasons of choice
--- | --- | ---
[curl](https://curl.haxx.se) | `imap`, `mpd`, and `weather` widgets | 1. faster and simpler to use than [LuaSocket](https://github.com/diegonehab/luasocket); 2. it's in the core of almost every distro; 3. can be called [asynchronously](https://awesomewm.org/doc/api/libraries/awful.spawn.html#easy_async)
GLib >= 2.54 | `fs` widget | Pure Awesome/Lua implementation.

The second dependency will be removed once all major distros update their Gio/Glib versions.
