The purpose is to make Variety installable on more systems where not all dependencies are installable.

The code should be flexible enough to not cause problems when the libraries are not present. I don't know if it will be worth the effort to have the GUI adapt accordingly.

This also means I need to somehow trick Quickly (which I use for building) to put certain libraries in Recommends section, some in Depends section in the debian control file. It doesn't seem to support this high fidelity, so some hackery will be necessary.

Functionality and libraries that we can live without:
trash-cli (for mobing to trash)
gir1.2-appindicator3-0.1 (app indicator support - we anyway have a fallback to gnome status icon)
imagemagick (? - filters and clock, this is not really core functionality, but its important and popular enough to maybe leave this as it is)
gir1.2-webkit-3.0 (this is for now only used for facebook authentication. In the future it may be used for scraping as well)

This should also be considered in relation to the plugins architecture that will appear at some time.
