 - [WiringPi2 pythonic binding](https://github.com/WiringPi/WiringPi2-Python) (for switching lock on Raspberry)
 - [python-irc](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/irc) >= 16.0, use "pip install irc", the one in repos is old
+- [pysftp](https://pypi.org/project/pysftp/) - for uploading SpaceAPI-formatted status to some host
 
 All dependencies can be installed on Ubuntu or Debian/Raspbian via:
