Thanks for offering this package.

Please provide a ssh key as per [1].

If you could also provide (what I could easily accept as) your "real 
name" rather than "NASAL DEMONS" (I understood that reference.gif :) ), 
that would be nice.

You can drop this as it is not needed (it seems that sxhkd is linked 
with libxcb1 for X11 protocol support).

In our dependency scheme, there is a separation between X11 clients and 
X11 servers: Clients don't require that you have any particular X11 
server installed, because you might be using a server supplied by 
someone else, or ssh tunnelling X to a cygwin installation to run 
clients there for an X server on a different host.
