According to the definition of 'optional':
"This is all the software that you might reasonably want to install if
you didn't know what it was"
psensor is a GUI for monitoring hardware sensor, it displays graphs and
raise alerts to users (AppIndicator, notify bubbles, tray icon). AFAIK,
it is not required by any other packages.
I don't see any reason why it should be installed if the user does not
want to access himself information about fan speeds, CPU temperatures,
etc. I don't believe that most users take care of this kind of information.
