But aren't "perl" or "python" packages just metapackages acting like glue for all the others in the section ? I don't know if removing them will have any effect on the libs already installed. And doesn't the package configuration system needs python and/or perl stuff ? aptitude search ~S~i~s'(perl|python)' returns packages that look pretty low-level stuff to me, most of which I have never installed manually but were dragged in as dependencies. Looks like a strange idea to me to run a "one programming language only" system, it would hint that there's a "one fits all" language and other are just for decoration purpose...
