Nothing in the dep list looks horrible to me personally (as my used apps have pulled most of those in already).
But I'd really hate to see dwm start to suffer from the same type of "must install plan9" dependencies that wmii had. It really doesn't matter how small/compact your window manager is if you have to install a 20MB+ set of utilities to use it. And I'm worried that XCB would end up adding the same to dwm without providing much more benefit. -- "You took the words right out of my mouth, Penfold" "Sorry, sir, do you want them back?"
