Don't a lot of widgets use python? It could be any of them
Does python cause problems, or do anything to make you want to get rid of it?

call me obsessive-compolsive ( ;) )but it wasn't like that in fresh boot . I am trying to understand what installed it so i can remove it.

is there anyway finding out which app depends on python2.5

Re: what is mounting python?
 

Python is installed by default, and i think uninstalling python might break essential system components
It is started everytime a .py file is executed, so there's little chance of not using python at all (it seems to be liked by a lot of devs nowadays)

Re: what is mounting python?
 

No it's not, at least it wasn't on my unit. It gets installed the first time you install an app that has it as a dependency (such as PyGTKeditor, or certain widgets).

Re: what is mounting python?
 

Running apt-cache rdepends python will show which packages depend on python (and hence pulled it in when they were installed). If that tells you that no package "python" was found, run dpkg -S python and pick the proper one (probably a python2.6 or similar).

Tip: Rather than using load-applet screenshot tool (as it shows the You have 20s...) just press Ctrl+Shift+P

Re: what is mounting python?
 

butterfly installs it but doesnt remove when you uninstall it.

i tried to install it with apt-get and remove but mount points stays.
you can remove and unmount python shares and manualy remove folders but not sure if it is good idea

Re: what is mounting python?
 

If I am not mistaken, 'apt-cache rdepends python' will show any repository package that depends on python - whether it is installed or not.

I suppose a nice project for someone would be to port over the deborphan tool.
