-#### Missing modules standard library
-
-The interpreters `python26` and `python27` do not include modules that
-require external dependencies. This is done in order to reduce the closure size.
-The following modules need to be added as `buildInput` explicitly:
-
-* `python.modules.bsddb`
-* `python.modules.curses`
-* `python.modules.curses_panel`
-* `python.modules.crypt`
-* `python.modules.gdbm`
-* `python.modules.sqlite3`
-* `python.modules.tkinter`
-* `python.modules.readline`

-For convenience `python27Full` and `python26Full` are provided with all
-modules included.

 All packages depending on any Python interpreter get appended
 `out/{python.sitePackages}` to `$PYTHONPATH` if such directory
 exists.
