Depends on what you mean by 'core part'. Just like cvs offers a lot of |
| 12 |
commands, such as commit, update, checkout, admin, Subterfugue offers a |
| 13 |
list of commands built as modules. |

If you want to use the NetThrottle command (and I would assume very few |
| 16 |
people would), you have to have PyGTK installed. Note that since |
| 17 |
Subterfugue is written in Python, PyGTK is not a compile-time dependency, |
| 18 |
it is optionally a runtime dependency. |

Again, since this is Python, you can compile the code without having the |
| 25 |
dependencies available. |

Because PyGTK depends on libglade which in turn depends on GNOME. |
