 * Opinions?  Would it be better to print a warning, stating that the
 * configurator will fail if python is not installed?  Other ideas?

Eew.  No python please, that thing is huge, depends on other
monstrosities which get updated without preserving backwards
compatibility.

What does the configurator say?  If it's too terse, maybe you can make
it emit something like "no python found, please install python and tk
and tcl and...".
