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

|g| depends on external packages,

but we cannot guarantee the backward compatibility.
However,
we have a large set of tests with a high code
coverage so that you can fully check your configuration.

The required dependencies provide the core features of |g|,

Full features

Some packages are not required to execute basic scenarios,
but provide additional features.
The dependencies are independent,
