This package is based on the package 'python' from project 'openSUSE:11.2:Update'.

Python is an interpreted, object-oriented programming language, and is
often compared to Tcl, Perl, Scheme, or Java. You can find an overview
of Python in the documentation and tutorials included in the python-doc
(HTML) or python-doc-pdf (PDF) packages.

If you want to install third party modules using distutils, you need to
install python-devel package.
