Dumb comment time: Wouldnt it be better to make maybe a few different
python module packages installs instead of thining out the
python-module? I know I personally use all the modules for python
available here plus some other modules as well. I know not everyone is
concerned with making their images as small as possible. Probably just
not getting the reasoning or point but just thought I would make the
statement there are those that use python-dev as is
