Detailed dependency table

This is a complete list of dependencies needed for making my AwesomeWM configuration work properly. If you install all of them you will have a (mostly) smooth out of the box experience. Of course, not all of them actually do something useful (see fortune-mod dependency). Also if you are willing to edit a few configuration files, which you will have to do at some point, most of these dependencies can be replaced. For example you can replace rofi with dmenu,maim with scrot.

If you notice that something is missing, please open an issue so I can add the dependency to this table.
