micwoj92 [1] filed an orphan request for steam-session-git [2]:

opt/dependencies need updates, this has been reported as early as 2017, no action from maintainer

The reason for no update is the debian control file that leads me to believe that the maintainer of the GitHub repository doesn't even agree with changing it. In the debian control file, the dependencies are as follows: Depends: ${misc:Depends}, steam | steam-launcher, wmctrl, x11-xserver-utils, xfwm4, xinput, zenity No mention of openbox, an explicit mention of xfwm4. Honestly, I also remember reading something years ago of a better method of doing this. There are some listed here that alucryd didn't also include as well, but that said, xfwm4 is explicitly labeled as a dependency. I can acknowledge a possible change to optdepends, but last I knew, there was nothing in the application file that had use of the ones listed in any meaningful way. Since I'm more compelled to believe the control file in the repository, perhaps send a pull request updating that file and alert me to the changes. Since I do not use this package myself anymore and since there's other ways to accomplish this without the need of an extra package, I will disown this package, but I do suggest reaching out to the maintainer via email as the Wiki also suggests before sending an orphan request (which you did not from what I can tell).
