DEPENDENCIES

64   Required:
65       Python 2.5 or later (3.0 and later is not supported).
66
67       PyGTK 2.14 or later.
68
69       PIL  (Python  Imaging Library) 1.1.5 or later. Alternatively, Pillow (a
70       fork of PIL) can be used.
71
72       Distribute or Setuptools.  Distribute  supersedes  Setuptools  on  most
73       distributions.
74
75   Recommended:
76       unrar, rar or libunrar to extract RAR archives.
77
78       p7zip  to extract 7Z archives. Note that p7zip might be able to extract
79       RAR archives as well, but this might require additional  software  (for
80       example,  p7zip-rar  on Debian-like systems), and it might fail to open
81       certain RAR archives, especially newer ones.
82
83       lha to extract LHA archives.
84
85       mupdf for PDF support.
