How to install and run Ukuu only on CLI server? #96

I would like to install ukuu on my Asus Eee server (very simple and old netbook). It is running Ubuntu 16 LTS 32bit Server. Invoking sudo apt install ukuu --no-install-recommends gives information about many packages to download, which I don't think my Eee needs because it does not have desktop-environment:

How can I install ukuu without so many dependencies?

This app is built with GTK3 and requires a desktop environment to run. To make it run without a display with require a redesign.
