Comment(by devans@…):

 Well, its up to you but you need to make sure in that case that your fix
 is compatible with ALL python
 versions that may be installed and selected as default.

 As I said anyone installing GNOME/GTK ports probably has python installed
 already as most of those who
 use python depend upon it, but if you don't want to do this you could
 patch to use the system python
 (2.3?) if that will work for this script.

 In any case, it would be IMO better (simpler, easier to maintain) to have
 the script use a specific version of python that is known to work rather
 than trying to accomodate many potentially incompatible versions.
