yes, i hate it so much! if i remove python, the whole gnome
environment are removed; if i remove perl, the whole xorg system is
removed. I don't think it's a good design to make python or perl so

yes, currently, I'm almost a "one programming language only" people, I
can accept the existence of other languages, but I think they should
be optional, not necessory!
