I allways thought sys contains everything required to build itself and everythin |
26 |
required for |
27 |
a minimum runtime system. |
28 |
perl is needed to build some of the sys packages, thats why it is there. |
29 |
python is not required for building and not for runtime, so it is not there. |

If you insist in having python in sys.tbz2 I can include a version compiled without |
32 |
use tcl-tk |
33 |
in the sys.tbz2 but dev-lang is the place. :-) |
