Hi,

* dmenu is listed as a dependency, but another menu (like bemenu) can work too.
* terminus-font is listed as a dependency, but other fonts can work too.

You could argue that these two are featured in the default config, but the default config will actually crash on a fresh installation of Arch. I think that's because bitmap fonts are disabled by default in fontconfig. The current version of dmenu (4.9-1, last updated Feb 2019) also has a documented bug regarding window focus (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dmenu#Current_window_loses_focus).

Kind regards,
This task depends upon
