Dependencies
by Jakob Petsovits on Sunday 11/Sep/2005, @08:48

So, does that mean that KDE mandatorily requires Python as dependency?
Or does this only matter on source-based distros like Gentoo?

python will be a requirement to build from source. but python is found on pretty much every modern UNIX-y OS that has even a tangential desktop slant and is easily added to those OSes that don't ship with it.

only as a build dependency, not a runtime dependency

Yes, that's what I wanted to know, thanks.
(Although I'm one of those who would like
to see it as runtime dependency too :)
