Bug Description

Binary package hint: python2.5

I've already spoken with Matthias about this on IRC, but this should be documented here since it's a blocker for the alpha-6 milestone. python2.5 has some sort of build issue that causes a file "/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload/_tkinter_failed.so" to end up in the package, pulling in around 9MB of dependencies on tcl/tk and related packages, and pushing the liveCD images oversized. So that needs to be fixed ASAP.
