The new version takes into account all the dependencies... the old version was 
not so accurate in that, as far as I know.
I'm actually not sure whether all the input options are compiled in... and 
whether any note is made if not...
libcwiid is in debian, so there's no reason not to make it a dependency of 
sclang.

Yes, it should be included in the source package, so package managers are not 
required to keep an eye on our svn, but can use the one that we label as a 
release.

agreed. the README should also be updated to reflect these changes.
